If I said I was falling
would it make concern for you
with murders perched
  high
    overhead
calling
   come to me
take my breath away

as the crow flies
   through a mock auttumn sky
under the
  bold
     expanse
of his wing
I shall follow him
feeling his fleeting call
like a chill of glory
bringing
such
   sweet
   delight
I covet the forbidden fragments
  of his soul

I shall surrender
unto the macabre entities
  that hide
   behind
     my eyes
boasting their melancholy
  as I
   fall in love
     with the darkness
and the crow.
