Forever
In my World Literature class, our teacher gave us the assignment to write a poem based on the Romantic style of poetry. The poem was to be read aloud in class. This was the result of that assignment.
Forever.
The crowds surround Him
Hurling striking insults to His face
“Father,” He cries
“Hold not their sins against them!”
Their torment does not go unnoticed
And His pleas are not ignored
For all who come to His throne of grace
By His blood
Their sins are purged.
Forever.As the blood seeps from His forehead
The perfect Lamb of God
Demonstrates His eternal love
Upon the cross of Calvary
He breathes His last
Having lived a sinless life
He bore the boundless weight of my transgressions
That by His love
I will live with Him.
