PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Mercy was a normal girl
Average and according to her classmates nothing to write home about
Which apparently was the problem
Always the invisible one at school
You know unless she was the one being picked on
Which unfortunately was often
Born into a family that didn't give a damn either
When it came to any kind of attention poor girl was far too eager
And that is were the curse of Mercy Lake truly begins
Mercy was sweet
Kind and a light
That no one ever
Truly took the time to see
But poor Mercy
Just kept trying
Until one night
A boy came calling
Meet me at the lake
He said
Ok she said
Without a thought
If only she had thought about it
She got there
Following so blindly
Thinking finally 
Someone sees me
But sadly
No and as his 
Demeaner turned cold
Your patheticness
Has grown old
Time to put you Mercy
Out of your damn misery
And with that he drowned her 
In the lake 
That one day 
Would bear her name
That she is cursed to haunt
For all eternity
So be ware folks
Please don't go near
Any lake 
Bearing, unfortunately
The name Mercy
