Light from the dark
Ravenna Mist Nov 2013
I hover in the dark
Eyes closed
Head tilted back
A dress of shadow whispers
Chains all around
Dragging me down
Open my eyes
Only to see the dark
But what is that
A light in the dark
Is it you or is it me
I turn to find it's both of us
Is this hope
A fluttering feeling inside of me
The chains are rusted
I'm braking free
I go to you but you rebuke me
I scream that I'm not leaving you
And you say I must
I don't like it but it is only true
If I use this hope I could free you
Only it would **** me
But leaving would surely do the same
So I use it
The power from inside
As the light claims me
The real world saves you
I cry a tear of joy
Knowing you live on
It Satisfies me
And let's me fade away
I hope you find another love
One that can stay be you forever
Like I used to be able to.

Sing to me (one more song)
Ravenna Mist Nov 2013
Meet me in the light
Beneath the willow trees
With the sweet songs of the birds
To harmonize to

Bring your harp
And sing to me
Like you do every time we meet
But this time let me help

Sing with me
I know my voice isn't the best
But humor me
Strum your harp and let me sing

Where are you?
You don't come to see me anymore
So where have you gone?
I can't find you anywhere

So I went to see your family
When the door creaked open
Showing me a field of red eyes
At the sight of me fresh tears

Oh where are you
You would have never had abandoned us
Wandering
I come upon

A grave made of wood
With your name engraved
Sing to me
Wait for me in the other world

Meet me in the meadow
Underneath the willow trees
I'll be there soon

So sing to me
Bring your harp
And sing for me

Ravenna
Ravenna Mist Nov 2013
I loved you
O so much
Laughter rang from wherever we stood
Dove of the morning I was called
With two crowns of light
We fought off the night
But our love soon became a cliff
Made of our hopes and dreams
I started losing my grip
As you stayed away
Longer and longer each day
Then early one morning
I came to see you
Only to find you gone
I begged for news
Only to find nothing
The days began to blur
A ball in the corner was all I became
Splitting pain
The one day they came
Dressed in black and wary of me
Told me the news and ran away
Leaving me to grieve over a dead mans name
The darkness came lapping around my mind
Whispering to me
Offering to end the pain
All I had to do was let go
Let go
Let go
So I let go
And fell into endless darkness
Numbing my pain
Stripping my emotions
Breaking the walls so carefully built
Tearing out my soul
Leaving nothing but a hole
Light became dark
White sealed away deep inside
No humanity left just a monster
Bursting out of that hole
With power previously untold
Shattered pieces melt away
I accept my fate
No heartbeat under these fingers of mine
Tears of ebony
With eyes of the purest lime
Obsidian hair, so long so fine
A mask of beauty hides
The demon deep inside
The blackest Raven
Gets a new name from death
Ravenna of the nights fate
A face so kind turn deadly in a moment
A porcelain doll
With razor sharp fangs
Claws of steel
Meant to rip and tear
Blood red lips
So cruel, so fine
No joy, hope, or happiness left
I am Ravenna of the darkest night
I'm open to criticism!

Photograph
Ravenna Mist Nov 2013
A smile frozen
No sadness there
Time has not broken
We still are not aware


This is just a photograph
A moment taken
Only one time to laugh
Before our love becomes forsaken

Your temper rises
With the length of my shirt
The bruises are no surprises
As you push me down into the dirt

This is just a photograph
A moment taken
Only one time to laugh
Before our love becomes forsaken

No fight left
Just some  broken bones
I'm to weak to heal this cleft
No where to go; I have lost my home

This is just a photograph
A moment taken
Only one time to laugh
Before our love becomes forsaken

Everyone I've tried to fool
Already knows
All they think is that I'm cruel
They won't listen to my woes

This is just a photograph
A moment taken
Only one time to laugh
Before our love becomes forsaken

They think I pushed you to this
Somehow that I deserve to be beat
I feel like I'm falling into the abyss
I'm so tired of your deceit

This is just a photograph
A moment taken
Only one time to laugh
Before our love becomes forsaken
  
In the dead of night
With hopes not to find
I began my flight
And started to leave you behind

This is just a photograph
A moment taken
Only one time to laugh
Before our love becomes forsaken

But then the case began
And I started to feel hate so deep within
To you This was all a plan
You grin at my scarred skin

This is just a photograph
A moment taken
Only one time to laugh
Before our love becomes forsaken

No longer will I run
I turn with intent to ****
The time to hide is done
This time it's not for thrill

I .
Will.
****.
You.
DIE.

— The End —
