Mercy

Lost.
searching for a love
to call my own 
But pain still befriends me 

Shattered.
Fresh wounds still bleed
A sworn enemy to darkness 
I beg the light to swallow me 

Breathing. 
Beyond my brokenness
Praying for forgiveness 
Healing made promises 

Hopeful.
Better days have come
Mercy smiled from above
I think I found the One.
