Mercy

       He was a lonely man who set
Out on an unknown journey
His heart had been broken
Yet for love he was still thirsty

She was also broken on her own path
At the same place they stopped to eat
Everything was by chance and
Somehow their eyes would meet

But it was doomed from the start
Each having a love that turned to dust
There was an overwhelming emotional
Barrier, love was hard to trust

She kept herself distant but demanded
Him to be close at her side
He was forced to share his feelings
But hers she insisted to still hide

Once again he put his heart on the line
Questioning why did the witches curse me
In his pain and anger he cried
Out to God begging for Mercy
