Your love
Is incomprehensible
Your sacrifice
Is massive
Especially
For a broken soul
Like mine
There you hung
In unimaginable pain
With spikes through your hands
And feet
Gravity pulled at you
Begging you to fall
Wanting you to collapse on the ground
But there you staid
With the muscles in your hands tearing
The bones grinding and crunching
You felt alone
As you hung there
With the bashing words
They spat at you
You could have come down
From the ****** hard cross
You didn't have to suffer
With blood in your eyes
And dried blood lacing your feet and hands
I imagine the wood was rough
Stabing you in the back and arms and legs
How did you do it
Only once did you cry out
Calling to your Father
Begging for our forgiveness
How could you do that
How did you not feel hate
Resentment
Anger
Towards the beings you were trying to save
What were you thinking
Did you feel all the sin
Of the imperfect human race
Of past, present, and future
Did you feel depression
Anger
Lust
Terror
Did the entire spectrum of human emotion run across your mind
Did you think of your mother
Or your father
Maybe you brothers and sisters
As you hung on the dried out tree
Did you think of the disciples
Of the one who sold you out
The one who disowned you
Did you feel anger towards them
Or pity
Did you want to scream out
Did you want to cry
Did the air in your lungs
Become forced
As your life slowed to a stop
When you died
Where did you go
Did you fall to Hell
To the hungry, firery flames
Did you continue to suffer
For me
For us
For the whole of humanity
What happened after death
When you were in the grips of Satan
Did he torture you
For three days
Where you finally relieved
When you rose from the dead
Or did you find annoyance instead
At the disbelief
Of mere humans
Did you lose your patience
Trying to help us
Understand your immaculate power
Were you upset
When you left the world
Especially knowing
How broken it is
Was it difficult to leave
When they all begged you to stay
When you knew of their pain
Of the trouble that lied ahead
It's uncomprehendable
To know what it was like
To understand why
You'd want to save humanity
Because humanity is destructive
Humanity is broken
Humanity is almost lost
Yet you choose to die for us
To save us
To protect us from the fires of Hell
I don't understand
Your desire to save us
To love us
To protect us
But thank you
Thank you for everything
Even if it doesn't make sense
And we don't deserve it
Thank you
