O, Mercy
And you came back.
I never knew
how to welcome you
since all we'd counted
on was these farewells
O, Mercy
And now you're smoking
real life
in my eyes and stinging
and not the person
I'd thought I'd hold this tight
O, little heart of mine hold on.
And I've always jumped the gun
in matters of loss and little loves
let the curtains
rise and
fall
before you've spoken a word
O, Glory
have mercy
O, Glory
you're here
O, Mercy
have mercy and be gentle now
magician's son forget now
to disappear

ReplyDeleteThis one I like! Easy to read style of writing and use of words, and full of vivid pictures that can be conjured in one's mind by reading between words!
