Ravens are birds which symbolise freedom,
but what happens when that freedom is dead?
The freedom which keeps us toward no end?
Does our raven die with its wings which will never grow?
Ravens are birds which symbolise death,
but isn't death just a part of life?
Getting yourself stabbed with your own knife?
Things die eventually, until there's nothing left.
Ravens are birds which symbolise wisdom,
both a blessing and a curse with insight,
Or unless you just go with what feels right,
and be yourself rather than follow the system.
Ravens are amazing, they go their own way,
even when the world disagrees with them,
they don't let their experiences weigh,
they carry scars like gems,
worn with pride.

I found out what ravens symbolise a little while ago, and of course I HAD to make a poem about it.
