Death, in the form of a black raven, flies

Glides down, black feathers fall down

Like soldiers in a bloody war, drop dead

Nobody else can see,

Only me

As he sits on my shoulder, snaps its beak

Glares at the two who my death seek

I feel the tingling touch

Of smooth black feathers

I feel how my entire body goes numb

Shiver goes through my spine

It's so cold and horrifying yet so pleasant and welcoming

It makes me want to feel this forever

It's a feeling nobody else can feel,

Only me, yes

Had I come this far only to

Be killed by my own blood and flesh?

Had I lived my life of tears and pain

For nothing at all?

Could I let myself leave and

Follow the path of this black raven?

I mutter, last words, and sigh

Brown eyes slowly close and then

Black raven pushes me lightly with its beak

It's encouraging me; I'm doing the right thing

It sets of and flies, black feathers fall, drop down

I can't see but I can hear

Flapping wings, in swift movements

And there, somewhere unknown, I hear

Sweet piano softly playing the notes of

My sad lonely life

They shall be the last thing I hear,

The quiet music takes me home

I've never felt this happy

The power of this feeling is deadly… I-

Again, it's something nobody else can hear

Only me… only me
