Bread Crumbs Poem by Morinanna Wyzard

Bread crumbs
do not satisfy my hunger
do not ease my pain
no longer can you hide
your deceitful ways
it's to late for pretending
it's to late to make amends
we are no longer family
no longer even friends
danger lurks around the bend
for the one I no longer defend
for I see through the darkness
shining like the child's eyes
I hear the cries
of ways things should have been
but instead you choose to travel
to the road's narrow end
trapped with your own pain
for you have nothing left to gain
no chance of survival
against the seeing eye
you know not yet
where this path shall lead
for you are just a child
to the darkened ways
but I have lived a long
dark journey
traveling back and forth
between the realms
of life and death
born to this path
it's the one I call home
dare to stand against me
to feel the raven's claw
for it is my voice
from which she calls
flying in the night sky
swift as the owl to prey
so let's play
you dare to say
follow me and I shall show you the way
knowing not which way to turn
when the darkness comes your way
bread crumbs no longer satisfy my hunger
bonds of my blood
I call to the God of thunder
brew up a storm
that keeps me calm
wind and rain
and lightening light my way
dark clouds cover thee
and never set you free
do not try to destroy me
for I am the raven of the night
no one can see
blood covered talons
darkness my defense
shows only your pretense
for I made a promise
I intend to keep
you shall long for peaceful sleep
for this promise will not come cheap
a price you must pay
for your childish way
