'What the Bird Knows'

"I am called the Bearer of Souls.
I bear them gladly,
From shore to shore.

I am the Crow.
I am eternal.

Most souls are weightless,
They offer no resistance
As I carry them
To the Land of the Dead.

But Sorrow I cannot bear.
A sorrowful soul is heavy.
Weighing me down,
Pulling me back.

Such a soul I cannot bear.

I lend it my Strength.
My Power.
My Glory.

I am Eternal.
I am the Crow.

I take it back,
Give it a chance
To put things right.

And until it does,
The soul is bound to me.

If I am wounded,
It feels pain.

If I die,
Its chance is lost.

I am called the Bearer of Souls.
I am the Crow.
I am Eternal.
Forevermore."
