Poem: Silent Tears (II)

Have you envisioned
  our Lord upon The Cross?
Have you seen
  those considered lost?

Did you notice
  the absence of Grace?
Did you observe
  tears staining His face?

Can you imagine
  the agony of His pain?
Have you accepted the Gift
  of the Lamb that was slain?

On that day of crucifixion
  Love was brokenhearted
and divine reconciliation
  was quietly started.

Christ mourned the souls
  who chose the path of rejection
and was sadden by their ignorance
  of His personally offered Salvation.

Days before Resurrection Sunday
  the silent tears of Christ fell,
having glimpsed the future in which…
   numerous souls were separated by hell.
