The Day Love Left Me

The crowd is getting bigger
As my savior is being brought nearer
I can hear the screams of hate
And hear the cries of someone saying " it's to late"
As I stand surrounded by family and friends for support
I can not stop crying as I feel so helpless for there is nothing I can do but watch him hurt
The sun is shinning so hot in the sky
My heart is aching and I can not stop screaming inside why
He has done nothing but help those in need So many like me he set free
So why this brutality
Then I remember what he said to me
"This to has to come to pass u see"
"So that one day you can be in Heaven with me"
"Do not be angry or carry one ounce of hate"
"For they know not what they do they know not their fate"
They are coming up the hill so close
I can see on my savior the crown of thorns
As they pass by me I could not believe my eyes
As I looked at his bloody body I fell to my knees and cried
The rocks were hard against my knees but I didn't care
The dirt was all over me and in my hair
The tears were flowing my heart was breaking
As the hammer made that awful sound
I heard the screams of my loved ones who were all around
I had to manage the strength to stand up and face the crowd
No matter that I too was dying but to be weak was not allowed
I had to stand up and be strong for I promised that I would
As they raised the cross and I saw his beautiful face I knew that I could
I just stared and cried
as I watched my savior slowly die
I couldn't take my eyes off of him
And deep down I knew this was the end
I grabbed ahold of my family and we held each other close
The time is drawing near the time for Him to go
We watched as he cried out and lifted his body up off the cross
When he went back down there was silence and you did not hear a sound
The sun that was shinning so bright
Turned to darkness as if it were night
There was this loud sound from the town behind
And the ground beneath shook and the soldiers ran off to hide
It is finished this we knew
Just has He said
The last night we talked
It was a beautiful night so we went for a walk
The last thing he said to me
Was "be strong and keep your faith my sweet Mary of Bethany"
These words will forever be sketched on my heart and this day will forever be
The day Love left me
