Cold Ravens part 2
Dedicated to Edgar Allan Poe I lay in a pool of blood I reach and can only feel the book that was dropped next to me that damned "cooking with shads' : vol one" The bane of my sorrow I tried to scream but only spitting up blood I roll over so not to choke I see the clock and its am I’ve been out cold for hours maybe days I push myself of the floor and see a raven sitting there on top of the absinthe bottle "Drink" is all I can hear from the raven I walk and I fall I reach for the raven and it flies up I grab my anon mask from the floor I put it on and set fire to your picture you won’t see me commit sin You only cursed me even during your death not in your life I attend your funeral and hoped you would find peace I chase the raven around the workshop I finally grab it "Drink" it says to me I snap its neck I pick up the bottle of absinthe and see a razor blade in the bottom of the bottle I smashed the bottle and pick up the razor blade I hold it in my hand I walk out of the workshop I attended the church I'm late to my own wedding But I'll promise you I'll be late to your funeral I stand there and everything is strange The church is full of angels not as if they were invited I hand my mask to the angel whom is marrying me to my wife I tell it my sins it tells me otherwise as if it’s a bad idea You see the blood dripping down my skull You ask why and I tell you the ravens are dead I walk forever in the coldness The heat doesn’t feel much to me I can burn the fires I hand you the razor blade Yet you ask questions Questions those aren’t due to be answered Not by me any way I carry a bottle of absinthe I tell it my sins It will forgive me unlike you Just like I told the angels The very angels who betted against me ye who laughs last I walk back into the workshop and put on a blues record I sit and look at the ashes your picture has left behind I pour you out a glass of the absinthe I tell you it’s rude to make me drink alone; I'm talking to your ashes not your picture By which I mean the ashes that were left behind when I burned your picture before I left today You should not have made me take your life But you invited me to drink so I poisoned the abuse I poisoned the absinthe too My intentions was to kill Shame you stood in my way I was haunted by your remorse Your sins could never top my tower I built it with the builders under the concrete 2 cups of anxiety 3 cups of insomnia 4 cups of Nightmares 5 cups of sorrow 6 Sliver bullets Each with a name Don't make me reload the revolution The revolver is ready The pawn shop sells me the Sliver I melt down for the bullets I look at the bottom of the bottle and think Why did I take you away from the peace I promised you?? They told you my eyes lie but you followered me into the night not aware of the nightmares that are coming to get you I could have topped them but I choose not too I stood in the church with my new wife and she knew what I did to you Yet she said yes I see Ravens everywhere They are out for my blood They are out for revenge But I have Sliver bullets for them The cold Ravens part 2 By Shads’ © 2020 NoemergencyexitAuthor's Note
