Yea I thought it could be Ravens because of the Poe reference but as it's a Murder of Crows and An unkindness of ravens I went withe crows.
The Load-bearer, the Warrior,
The Frightened One, the Brave,
The Fleet-of-foot, the Ironshod
The Faithful One, the Slave

I am a minstrel and a loremaster,
My love I betrayed twice to my king,
She escaped and I wandered East searching for her,
There I stayed in despair minstrelling.

Born in distant lands
traveling far
cross land and sea
Taking permanent residence, he
Called to war
crossing the shore
down but not dead
several monthes abed
Returned to his love
both land and wife
position secured
bought young to life
Brought many of the old,
back to life
tales were told
one of a knife

Actually I thought I put in too many clues, if need be, I can add a few more verses.

A little more clues !
Long gone now
his offspring live on
by campfire, three wait
day and night
for that is their fate
Others live on
many have gone
ships have sailed
his memory still hailed
Diminutive friends
one lived in an end
courteous of guests
even those that are pests
