Mercy

Grandma- 11-29-11

One day you will wake beyond this realm
and leave behind the ones who'll tell
of the glorious times you once held
but into sadness slip they will dwell

Please tell me what it's like
to know pleasure over pain forever
effervescence of souls together
to abolish the spike

Oh, please, but could you whisper in my ear
all the beautiful things I need to hear
so to leave behind these terrifying fears
and never again bear their piercing sneer

If I must wake, day after day
then help me relieve this singeing pain
that tore through me that November day
when the Heavens opened up and stole my love away

Author's Note

I don't like how "sing-songy" it sounds, needs more adjectives and complex words to fill
