Raven

Little raven, young and bright

Your family's lives snuffed out at night.

Their warm blood paves the cobbled stones

Your brother's blade is sharp and honed.

.

Little raven, full of rage

Your anger acts like your own cage.

You isolate yourself all day

And train to make your brother pay.

.

Little raven, go and run

Your true journey has just begun.

Vengeance is the only way

Fox may beg you, you'll not stay.

.

Little raven, now's the time

Your brother will pay for his crime.

You've trained for this for all your life

But this will only cause you strife.

.

Little raven, hurt and scared

The truth has left you unprepared.

Your brother's love, untimely death

Will lead you to things you'll regret.

.

Little raven, strong and proud

Why did you don the red red cloud?

Your mind is clouded, thoughts unclear

Your every action sows more fear.

.

Little raven, your mind's hazed

Recent events have left you dazed.

The dead now roam, the war is here

Now tell me, is your rage still pure?

.

Raven, little you are not

Your chakra crackles and it shocks.

The eyes of Six Paths you now wield

The Firstborn's power is unsealed.

.

Raven, you know this world's pain

You've no taste for the heart-blade games.

True peace is nigh and in your grasp

But golden fox is holding fast.

.

Raven, you have tried your best

But now you lay down to get rest.

Fox has won, but that's okay

You trust the future's not so grey.
