Raven’s claw
Reticence running wild
Warping
the
breath
of the innocent child
A thoughtless relent;
a paranoid sin
The we have born this while in
Clarity lurks
in
vested eyes
No reason, lest we do despise
The victim;
The fragile;
The guarded weak
For those who warned them
Shall not speak
For a masterful mind works without flaw
And grips your bones beneath a raven’s claw
Never surrender;
never sunder
Be the rock that you’ll never die under

Thank you for your input, Rianne. I was addressing my childhood in this poem. No, I didn’t draw this picture - found it on google. Thanks for reading my work.

Kind of like a dark and gripping take on morality? Again, very original language. The theme and direction are also very solid. I'll probably have to reread this one to take it all in.
