mercy's door

-
can you take me where you want me to be
will i let you love me completely
does it matter that I've been here before
knocking on mercy's door

like other days when I've been sitting
waiting in this unnecessary line
all of us convinced we must linger
outside of mercy's door
love me completely
let me see
the depths of mercy
plunge me deep
take me there nightly
to the seas
mercy tides pulling at my feet

because you have, I've forgiven me
turn me into the person you see
I won't have to knock any more
walking through mercy's door
