He is the God who bled and did not strike back...

The God that bled

They really hated you,
we are the ones
because you were so different
and opposed to everything i was about.

everything i thought to be right
you said was all wrong
your actions condemned all my selfishness
selfish self abosorbtion

and i hated to come into your light.
It was more bearable, to kill the source of my pain
though all you did was true
and who you were was pure,
the darkness was more comfortable
everything i knew
told me to get rid of you

You were never into money
People found it strange
you didnt really like the popularity
or playing the power game.

Did I ask for your opinion?
i'll punch your gut- i'll spit on your face
he only looked at me
with a strange look in his eyes

what do they say about you
why dont you fight back!
He was silent, sober, alive.

the crowds cry out crucify the man!
long furrows they score
long bruising wounds on flesh
watching with delight
the floor turns red

Not a sound, not so much as a whimper
there he was silent through all the violations
he prayed but no one came

A crown of thorns for a head so pure
4 nails for limbs that only did righteousses and healed
Writhing, gasping, suffocating, coming
up for another breath,
this thing's not over yet,

Pushing up against a nail.
nails creating electrifying pain.
darkness a cover,
hour after hour,

finally a cry, Father forgive them,
another crazy cry.

who claimed to be God
What a perposterous thing
arrogance personified
the son of the dark king

pure and holy
compasisonate and kind?
An irritant, a mad man

Well we showed Him.
