A speck of black
a single crow
A lonesome blemish
tainting the snow
Yearning for darkness
yet bound to light
A soul turned heartless
by the ghastly blight
Stripped of shadows
to hide its existence
It hangs in the gallows
of light's insistence
Anger in its veins
light shimmering around
Its Paradise in chains
numbing Hell unbound
A hermit an outcast
it is easy to see
for the contrast
creates
the clarity
