Mercy

We fall from grace like stars from the sky Burning bright, fast and furious Disappearing without a trace a life creeps in like a thief in the night The time dissolves into shadows the ghosts of change Dancing to a mad beat on a relentless drum Forever attuned to a higher purpose I can't remember where the days begin and end The mutation of ideals and thoughts Vagrant plantings in urban plots somewhere on a dirty street corner I imploded Mercy saved me from another bout with the darkest days ahead.....
