Mercy

Have mercy on me my last breath begs
I have done you no harm other than Love
Thrust at your despicable continuance 
Of which I do not know why the Gods’ 
Chose you to live over all the beauty 
Savage selfish hungry to take all
You the powerful evil entity undeserving
Beauty glares at you through so many eyes
But you are undefeated! Festering unholy
Beast hungry for the pure unloved 
Are you proud? Die you must but it is 
Not my soul who shall raise itself to 
Oblivion to desecrate your remains. 
No not I. I shall remain Holy and above
Feathered wings spread my brethren 
Shall protect me and savor my will
You can harm me no more. 
You are vanquished to my eyes as
Tears fall I stand tall you cannot 
Thrust me from my pedestal
I have the strength to you cast away 
For your evil divide and you are nothing
Mercy for my soul death to your being
Neither the two shall meet ever again.

It is more to keep negative energy away than an actual being. Casting away. Thank you SO
