Freedom starts at the foot of my bed. It could just as well start at the other end of the world. The raven flies through the room and lands on the head of my prison made from blankets, and pillows. This foul fowl is staring at my eyes as if they were precious pieces of jewellery to steal. Her enchanting voice echoes through the cave not found on any map, alluding to what once was love, when she calls me 'honey' with aculeate aggressions. Cold mornings still sting. A seasonal sensuality that matches the sharp intake of poisoned honey she forces down my throat, every day. Enough to make my intestines scream, but not enough to end this torture. I hear sand crunch beneath her steps, as she circles in on me. Something shiny flashes in the candlelight. If I only was strong enough to move. Instead, her merciless retribution slowly washes over me, each steady wave carrying me closer to my grave. I have no idea if there will ever bee a chance to get out of this. My eyes wander to the empty suitcase to my left. Probably not alive. Her athamΓ© cuts through the skin on my chest like a quill that scratches over paper. I can't even scream, any more, as my blood starts flowing onto the sheets. Just like my tears. My gaze turns to the tiny floret growing inside a dark nook above me. I don't know how it can survive here. It might be the last thing I'll ever see. I shouldn't have forced myself on her, that night...

The raven came calling
My blood curdling
Wondering the reason why
Staring up at blackened sky
My heart thundering
My words mumbling
I have heard of prophecies
As I got on bended knees
Asking for some other way
Yet the raven would not be swayed

When he killed a raven in a drunken rage, he didn't know what was coming to him. A few days later his ravaged body was discovered. Newspapers speculated he'd been attacked by birds.

Outside the window, it perched in the tree, an ivory raven with deep ebony eyes. Ever since Jett's daughter passed, it had been coming around. This time, it carried something. A viscous vial with a crimson liquid. The one his new bride claimed was medicine.

#horrorprompt 2112 Crushing Weight
Crushing weight on my chest
Canβt feel anything below my waist
How long have I been down here?
Do they even know that Iβm here?
All around, the smell of cement and damp.
When will the air run out?
How long will it take to die?
God, donβt let it take too long.

Harold had decked out his basement room with all his Rush paraphernalia: every album on every medium, every magazine that contained an article, every book that mentioned the band, every action figure, every miniature replica of every instrument they ever played...

Horror Writing Prompt no. 2118: raven
Rave's foretold my death
You're too late, my friends, I crooned
On their last visit

Retribution can take many forms, coming from those unwilling to forget.
Donβt think you can sleep easy...somebody might be plotting grim revenge, and your pleas for help could be swallowed
by the emptiness of regret.
