The Ravenstag
Halia Meguid
So this is the first completely original piece I’ve ever put on Tumblr and that’s a bit nerve-wracking but regardless, this is a song inspired by the NBC series Hannibal, lyrics and melody by me. I really hope you enjoy it! xx
THE RAVENSTAG (inspired by “Hannibal”)
blue as night, the ravenstag was flying
as you plucked the hyde, the beast stood crying
was it ever not enough to torment enough, cried out the blood in the veins
of the ravenstag who told me your name
i’ve started dreaming the most peculiar pictures
the blacks and whites and colors are richer
did you feel it kind enough, yes kind enough to plant the seed in my brain
of the ravenstag whispering your name
vulgar fruit, it gleams like vulgar diamonds
a picture of my own designing
wish they’d said beware the signs, the meats and wines of the velvet joy and the pain
of the ravenstag when he calls my name
(bridge, bach aria medley)
come into my parlor says the spider
close my eyes, the space between heartbeats grows wider
maybe i’m not brave enough or sane enough to steady the knife of the gaze
of the ravenstag as it whispers my name
morning’s come and the ravenstag’s behind me
i’m a crimson stain and no wind can dry me
is an enemy enough to keep the love of a monster that swallows and maims
the same ravenstag who knows my name?
- reading a foreign language you're trying to learn: lol this is easy I understand so much of this
- trying to construct sentences in that language: wtf am I doing jesus take the wheel where is wiktionary
I was rewatching a season 1 ep of OUAT this morning and really stopped for a second and was like wow, she killed a whole bunch of people, maybe I shouldn’t like her so much
then I saw this picture
honestly she could nuke all of fucking Storybrooke and I would still want to boop her on the nose
If you think that cute kid you used to be friends with is a sociopath, maybe don’t poke him with a proverbial stick? It’s like you’re courting death. You’re 16, not a lemming. Get it together, sis.
Talya, I was rooting for you, heffa, but you’re making it harder than Mariana does.
Lena is literally becoming my favorite character on this show
In Spanish, we don’t really say “I love you” we say “traeme una cerveza” which roughly translates to “you are the light of my soul” & I think that’s beautiful.
Oh Lena, this is going to come back and bite you in the ass! You’re on ABC Family, you’re doomed!
I knew she’d do it! Girl, don’t get caught.
Lena is my favorite mom. Well, Stef, too. Favorite moms!
I never want to see Stef’s sadface again. I’m pretty sure I’m permanently injured.
Brandon will be back within two (okay, maybe five) episodes, I’m calling it now. Probably because his dad is going to do something to disrespect the family and Brandon’s not about to have that.
The only reason he might not come back would be if they really wanted to push the romance with Callie. There’s no way they’d be allowed to date and live in the same house. N.O. No.
