Mercy Calls..... by ManuelRichard(m): 8:22pm On Apr 02, 2015 |
This is a piece to reflect on, this season...#Good Friday's special. MERCY CALLS You wonder How you got that far Unholy schemes, To new extremes; And your edges; Almost done loosing their seams. Freedom it was you say you seek Now,can't seem to find your way home. You know you're lost And your peace,gone. To others,you can't admit, But deep inside you know better And just like bile; Bitter is the taste of sin. Stuck in between A backward retrace of lost steps And the lots,of your stray. And sometimes you wonder. You wonder why you keep wandering. You could think, But you long have chosen not to care. They called it a dead conscience; But you know it still pricks At your every faults But only if you care. And dear,the one up there, keeps no tab on your down sittings.. you where told a lie.. But he sure would take joy in your uprisings. And I wonder For what pleasure is there in sin? What life is there in the flesh? Where is thy peace of mind? And then,if you change your mind And care to think, What will be of repentance Without brokenness? And the place of mercy without your long awaited return? How far did you go? It sure did not change the place of mercy. And who says its late, Only if you will take one second Of so much you've been given And look back; Mercy calls........... Manuel Ovie Richards |
