When Mercy Falls at Night

Shadows creep where daylight hides,
My bones still fight what hope denies.
Health was just a loaned disguise,
Now sorrow blooms behind my eyes.

Every breath is weighed in pain,
My strength dissolves like falling rain.
No purpose calls, no hands extend,
Just silence echoing without end.

I am the ghost inside my frame,
Forgotten soul with no one to blame.

Bruised in mind, in spirit sore,
Memories haunt behind each door.
Bitterness curls upon my tongue,
Where love once lived, grief now clung.

Days drag on with wheels that stall,
No reverse gear, just a broken crawl.
The world moves on, I’m standing still,
Forgotten at the windowsill.

Yet when the dark begins to rise,
The burden lifts from weary eyes.
In sleep’s soft arms I disappear,
Where pain no longer whispers near.

No demons chase me through the light,
I find some peace when falls the night.
Within the dark, I’m finally free,
A fleeting glimpse of what might be.
