Darkness Ravens

written by: Verona Jones

@VeronaJ57

Darkness Ravens fall with joining
Shadows so disappointing.
Heavenward the darkness rises
In Cravens beaks our souls to eat.

Flying ever expanding
A cloak of ebony banding.
Death hiding within disguises
In Cravens beaks our souls to eat.

Pray to whatever gods you deign
Unseen whilst the evil does reign.
Even in light it despises
In Craven beaks our souls to eat.
