Poem: Upon the Cross
<><><><><><><><>
Crucify me
Crown of thorns
Held up by spikes of iron
Bleeding from ever open wounds
Stop putting me on this cross of death
Displayed for all to see
<><><><><><><><>
Get me down with pleading eyes
Let me live
Bind my wounds with loving hands
Take me down and heal my shattered soul
Do not abandon me to suffer here alone
Pierce my side with the spear of my destiny
Let the blood from my crown of thorns run deep
Tears of blood flow from my eyes
Lifeblood Pools upon the cold ground
Why do you make me a martyr?
