For the Sake of Ultimate Love
by Euna P. (Age: 15)
copyright 07-04-2006


Age Rating: 10 to 127

 
Born to die
the most painful death
and to drink
the most bitter cup

Beaten and whipped
with clubs and fists and lashes
and cruel words and humiliation
beaten beyond recognition

Torn heart, broken soul
carrying the sins of forever
suffering the price of billions
for each individual one

Heavy burden
a long steep hill to climb
people laughing at the pain
suffering alone

Nails driven into flesh
a crown of thorns drawing blood
lifted and raised up
flesh hanging on the nails

Tearing flesh, tearing pain
a sponge of vinegar to quench thirst
a great cry of anguish and pain
death

A spear stuck through the heart
buried in a tomb
mourners wailing sorrows
the lamb had been killed

Burning in Hell
Lucifer triumphant
trapped in a cage in a pit
fire eating away everlasting souls

Three days of suffering
three days of weeping and
gnashing of teeth
Three days of utter torment

All this done
yet He has done nothing wrong
but preach the gospel
and heal others

Why this torment
Why such injustice
Why pain
WHY?

All He had to do
was cry out "Father, save me!"
Angels would have flocked down
and saved him

They would have broken the whips
the clubs, and placed healing hands on Him
but he didn't cry out
he decided to suffer

He decided to suffer
so we could have new life
a hope for heaven
everlasting second chance

We do not need to fear death
because He defeated it
for the sake of love
for the sake of everyone

He broke out of the cage
and now
the one who loves us
holds the keys

Odd, I could of sworn I read this! I must not of, for I didn't comment. Anyway, this is a great poem! Sacrifice of all kinds is the as you said, the ultimate showing of love. Your descriptions and choice of words is as top notch as ever, and I'm glad to read. My only pick: I wish you'd capitalize the first word of each line...check out my new story, "Why I'm A Capitalization Freak" to learn why. I know what you're thinking, "At long last, this whiny critic is saying WHY she whines about caps? Huzzah!" I'm finally catching up on my commenting, and plan on reading all the poems you've submitted since my last crazy commenting spree! Back on topic, I'm glad to be reading your work again...you've really got a talent with the way you tell a story in your poems! I've written a few poems about sacrifice, but none on my religion since I don't want to irritate non-Christians... Great work, keep writing!

-The greatest love is that of one willing to sacrifice all for another.

This was such a powerful and vivid description
of the Crucifixion I have ever read.

You must be very proud of this.

~Awesome~

T.T For God so loved the world that he sent his one and only son to die on the cross for us...
Anyway BEAUTIFUL Poem! I can't find anything wrong! >w< I wish I a strong heart like Jesus...

It amazes me that at your age you are able to write such beautiful and passionate things. I have been writing since I was your age and like to think I'm pretty good but your are awesome girl. Don't worry your spelling will improve and so will your word usage but that's what we are all here for. To help you get better and for the older crew to stay good.

This is powerful stuff, for it shows just how much God loves His creation, for He sent His Son to die, but not only die, but to conquer Hell and death, to bring us eternal life.
You have written a very powerful and emotionally packed poem, at least for those who believe that Jesus is who He said He was; God in the flesh, the final sacrifice given for all mankind to simply accept His gift of salvation.
I love the lines, "suffering the price of billions for each individual one"
A couple things that need fixing:
"a sponge of vinigar (should be 'vinegar') to quench thirst"
"fire eating away everlasing (should be 'everlasting') souls"
This deserves the five points, but please fix the errors.
