I thought I knew
Raven
I Thought I knew you.
Apparently not true.
You betrayed me.
Then you saved me.
Not only me but many others
I don't care but why it bothers?
I thought I knew.
You went askew.
Then you flew.
Higher than I could go.
Higher still you flow.
Looking down at our pathetic lives.
What's it like to live in the skies?
I thought I knew.
How to contain.
The many powers, but in vain.
So many faces.
So many places.
Inside me.
Can't you see?
The abused.
The confused.
That describes them all.
Too many to recall.
I thought I knew.
Who they were.
But they were just a lure.
To drag me from the truth.
The emotions I have now.
Can't be controlled.
Nor be lulled.
Back to their prisons.
In my visions.
The hurt I feel is so large.
I fear rage and anger will take charge.
That cannot happen this I've known.
For world would be thrown.
I thought I knew.
How to hate.
Until that date.
And the fate.
That set me straight.
I lost control in that time.
A stubborn pulse ran through my mind.
It pushed itself to the top.
Giving my control the drop.
Barely containing at that time.
Oh how I strived.
To hold it back.
But at last it broke through.
I thought I knew.
It was your fault.
Apparently not.
Now I fear that the time will come.
When no one's sum.
Will be strong enough to hold me.
So you see.
You have both strengthened and weakened me.
I thought I knew you.
And now I'm sure.
You served your purpose to endure.
The betrayal, loss and friends.
Until the sweet and bitter ends.
So now I say good bye.
Until I see you in good time...
