Sometimes Mercy is Messy

Sometimes mercy is messy.

Sometimes we squander our
time and money to fulfill our lusts,
but can never quench the desire that
burns within our hearts for love,
for purpose, for destiny.

An inheritance received before it's due,
and squandered in the parlor of sin
and deceit.

Wallowing in the mud and eating
what's not even fit for the pigs.

Empty pockets and empty bottles,
but the worst of emptiness
lies within us.

Addictions and habits,
seeking fulfillment and satisfaction,
that continues to leave
void of hope.

Sometimes mercy leaves us
hanging at the end of our rope.
