I Beseech You

Show me mercy, for I am weak a wounded bird, pity I seek unable to take flight, grounded please stop me from being hounded Listen to my pleading, I'm meek, I lay here, life surely looks bleak looking into my deaths mystique evil everywhere, surrounded show me mercy, observe inner soul not physique a living creature, I'm no freak unwillingness is unfounded non actions would be ungrounded be loving, helpful, no critique show me mercy.
