It
was
supposed
to
be
forever,
Mercy.
But
the
forever
ended
before
the
night
was
done.
I
trace
the
patterns
on
the
bedroom
floor
Where
your
shadows
used
to
dance
and
play
I’
m
staring
at
the
handle
on
the
heavy
wooden
door
Waiting
for
the
words
you
never
say
It’
s
quiet
now,
the
kind
of
quiet
that
burns
Like
a
secret
held
too
long
inside
the
chest
I’
m
learning
lessons
that
I
never
asked
to
learn
Searching
for
a
reason
to
find
rest
Oh,
Mercy
Chipango,
you’
re
the
ghost
in
my
room
The
scent
of
your
sorrow
still
blooms
in
the
gloom
I
gave
you
my
spirit,
I
gave
you
my
flame
Now
I’
m
just
a
whisper
that’
s
calling
your
name
It
hurts
to
be
broken
by
the
one
I
hold
dear
Watching
the
love
slowly
disappear
I
keep
the
letters
in
a
box
beneath
the
bed
Every
promise
written
in
your
faded
ink
I
hear
the
echoes
of
the
things
we
never
said
Pushing
me
further
toward
the
jagged
brink
Was
it
a
game
that
you
played
with
my
soul?
Or
were
you
running
from
the
light
in
my
eyes?
I’
m
trying
to
make
the
shattered
pieces
whole
But
I’
m
drowning
in
the
wreckage
of
your
lies
Oh,
Mercy
Chipango,
you’
re
the
ghost
in
my
room
The
scent
of
your
sorrow
still
blooms
in
the
gloom
I
gave
you
my
spirit,
I
gave
you
my
flame
Now
I’
m
just
a
whisper
that’
s
calling
your
name
It
hurts
to
be
broken
by
the
one
I
hold
dear
Watching
the
love
slowly
disappear
I
see
the
stars
fading
out
in
the
gray
I’
m
finding
the
strength
just
to
turn
and
walk
away
But
the
anchor
is
heavy,
and
the
sea
is
so
wide
And
there’
s
nowhere
left
for
my
heart
to
hide
Oh,
Mercy
Chipango,
you’
re
the
ghost
in
my
room
The
scent
of
your
sorrow
still
blooms
in
the
gloom
I
gave
you
my
spirit,
I
gave
you
my
flame
Now
I’
m
just
a
whisper
that’
s
calling
your
name
It
hurts
to
be
broken
by
the
one
I
hold
dear
Watching
the
love
slowly
disappear
I’
m
letting
you
go,
Mercy.
I
have
to
let
you
go.
The
silence
is
all
that
remains
now.
Just
silence. (

soft
piano
