Mercy

there is a way
I’ve felt so long
it’s dumb and boring
'cause it’s not made up
but you know I feel it
and I know you do
that there’s something bigger
for me and you
born in the same
city and year
you let our eyes meet —
I look away before I feel weird
all of my time here means nothing at all
would you believe that I waited all along
for you to say you need me too
