Whispers in the Night
By andhaka
In the hollow crevice filled with darkness
Lay the cold, abandoned angel
The arch of every strand of gold
Sprawled around her like a mane
She rested in her tranquil slumber
Sleeping through the pain
The raven cried in a mourning call
Withered wings bloody
Dripping crimson from ebony
Tortured wails of deaths herald
Hark as the silence dies
Serenity of the foul night imperiled
Tempestuous winds whistle through leaves
Like shallow breathes of a fading stranger
Falling and rising in uneven rhythms
Entrancing the ghosts of gloom
Etching the stories of deceased into the sky
Carrying them away into my angels tombUnauthorized Copying Is Prohibited.
