MERCY My eyes are ever searching Roaming empty spaces The memories and losses still vivid They haunt me and leave me grieving hard My thoughts are spilling out They morph into giant green grasshoppers They jump all around me The pain inside Uncontrollable deep wracking sobs Please have mercy on my soul Visions of punishments dance in my head Nothing is ever good enough Coping and surviving that’s what I do Like a baby blanket Sleeping with a weapon is comfort Everything will be okay I beg to hear Hold me anyone This poet’s heart screams For sweet release No more goodbyes Enough is enough My plate overflows In such unmanageable amounts I guess tonight’s choice Take my sleeping pills early Then open my eyes to brightness Another new day in my pajamas I go outside for a smoke. ~Michelle Lee Gagnon
