Hi everyone! These are just some poems about my favorite Teen Titan, Raven. They actually turned out surprisingly dark for what I'm used to writing. Anyhow enjoy the more sinister part of my mind!
Raven's prayer before facing her father
A sinner's plea
Oh, God lift me up with your mighty hand!
Pull me from my dark despair.
Shield me from the cruelties of man's world.
Let your light destroy my darkness.
The prison no one can see.
Its bars contain me.
They are not of iron or steel
But of wounds that refuse to heal.
Lift me up and make them only scars.
Only memories of things that used to be.
Darkness disappears by your holy light.
Please God forgive me!
Raven's thoughts about herself before and after being freed from Trigon's influence.
Soul Shredder
Some cut their wrists.
Others black their eyes.
But me, I beat myself up on the inside.
My weapon is not a knife.
But my own words and thoughts.
I am a soul shredder.
I degrade myself, I think its better.
I'm not really hurting myself.
Although I break my spirit and wound my soul.
Degrading my confidence.
I become increasingly sad.
My own bottled up grief kills my soul.
But now there's a bright light.
Hopefully, my shredding days are over.
I will allow myself to heal.
I have lost my evil words and thoughts.
They can no longer shred my soul.
Someone showed me they cared.
I am no longer scared.
Now all that's left of those dark days are but the scar.
These quickly fade.
Well there you have it….so……read and as always review! Please don't hit and run!
