Beast Boy walked into the dimly lit café, and wondered what the heck he was doing here.
"Hey. Is it open mike tonight?"
Some guy, that seemed he hadn't slept in a month, at the counter twisted his neck. "Yup… go on ahead, no one's reading right now"
Beast Boy walked ontothe stage and took his seaton thetall stool near the microphone.
"Might as well" Beast By took out a piece of paper from his pocket..
If you ever saw a raven fly, you'd know what I mean.
Wings drawn in, holding herself tight.
Always so dark, always so alone.
When I try and make herlaugh, she flies off.
But she's better than a dream.
If you ever saw a raven fly, you'd know what I mean.
Why can I never say what I feel to her.
She seems so distant.
It rips me apart, to see her all alone.
Always trying to get away.
If you ever saw a raven fly, you'd know what I mean.
Most people say, when a bird tries to get away, set it free.
But I keep her bye.
I don't know why.
But I can't let her go.
No matter how hard I try.
I have to watch from a distant place.
And see her worried, that she will never be happy.
If you ever saw a raven fly, you'd know what I mean.
With grace and elegance of a shadow,
She entrances me.
With her violet eyes, so full of sorrow.
I want to help and ease the pain,
Of being alone.
She shoves me away.
But I want to be with her.
More than she could possibly know.
If you ever saw a raven fly, you'd know what I mean…
As Beast Boy folded the piece of paper and shove it into his pocket, he was sure he would start hearing boos and 'get of the stage!'. But instead he hears clapping all around him.
"What?" Beast Boy looks around to see the entire café cheering for him. "Uh.. thanks a lot every body!" Beast Boy walked off stage and headed for the door.
"Hey not bad kid" Beast Boy turned his head to see the same guy at the counter. "Looks like you got a fan."
Beast Boy turned around to see a familiar goth girl standing in front of him. "R-Raven h-h-hi"
Raven lifted her gaze from her shoes and into the embarrassed green teen's, emerald eyes. And with a small smile she pulled him into a deep hug. "Thank you…"
So there you have it, another Beast Boy and Raven poem… well actually it's a story but it's focused around a poem right? I liked it, tell me what you think. And to any of my 'Beast Boy's suffering' fans, the sixth chapter will be a bit slow coming, because I have a truck load of home work to do, I'll try and hurry and finish it, my mom let me write this before I had to go back to my homework, shes so nice /. Also give me some suggestions on whom to write about next, I'm thinking about Starfire. Ta ta for now.
