The Crow
It's a poem about making a choice
Rated:
E
by
Avg Rating: (1)
Guide me, Crow
Which way to go
Into the Shadows or the Light
For I don't know which is right

Some might say
The Light's the way
But into the Shadow
I think I will follow

Maybe I'm wrong
But my will is strong
Shall I venture into the Light
Or stay in the Shadows of Night

"Into the Light we shall go"
I shall follow, you the Crow

Part Two

I should have stayed where it's shaded
For now the Light has faded
You said that's the way to go
So I followed you, the Crow

You said the Lights the way
But I'm in the dark today
But the choice belonged to me
And that is why I cannot see

I'm here now to ask you again
But this time it's of Grace or Sin
Is the way of Grace the way I want
Or the way of Sin, I want to hunt

Some might say the way of Sin is wrong
But Grace has taken many that were strong
So now I must go to where I do not know
So guide me Crow which way to go

Part Three

Crow, you have not answered
So, Crow what is the word
Am I to go the way of Sin
Or is Grace the way within

Forget the Grace or the Sin
Tell me which of these should win
Shall I visit over there
Or is it here I should bare

Which one is best for Me
Maybe that is the Key
Should I risk the Distance and a friend
Or wait Here until the end

I ask for your Guidance, Crow
On which way is the way to go
"You should go over There
And hope there is no despair."
