Be Merciful to Me Lord
By Amanda Robin
When I cry in mental anguish
because my thoughts keep going
without end.
Be merciful
When I cry in mental anguish
because the voices are laugh
just like little demons in my head
Be merciful
When I cry in mental anguish
because I feel like dragging
a jagged edged blade
across my wrist
Be merciful.
When I cry in mental anguish
because you are the only thing
between me and hell of pain
of never waking up.
Be merciful.
The photo you posted is of the sun rising, LA, not setting . . .
ReplyDeleteI don't get it. I didn't say if it was rising or setting. However, I can tell you I was there when I took it! It was setting. It doesn't matter, though, if you think it was rising it's all good. I just put it on there for a little bling to the poem.
