Father/Son/Holy Spirit

You were reborn today

But I only remember you as a babe

Flesh of my flesh, blood of my blood

I only see you as the child I never met

~

You bear the wounds, I have them too

Holes in my hands, a burden upon my back

The weight of divinity is frightening

But you’ve been taken under by the current

~

You’re righteously tortured

But you shirk the responsibility of a martyr

You refuse to die for my sins

But you want me to praise you for your good deeds

~

I see myself in you

I see the worst parts of you in me

I know it’s possible to defy the Father

So why must you always pray to Him?

~

You can’t come back from this

You’re not the son of God

You were bruised by a mortal man

I wasn’t there to save you

~

Why can’t you see the curse?

Why can’t you see the easy escape?

Why do you make it so difficult to love you?

You tear my heart in half

~

It’s hard work loving men like us

I could have been a good daughter, a better son

I don’t know who I am

And I’m beyond His reach

~

I know how easy it is to refuse, so refuse him

I know how hard it is to try, but please just try

Cast aside you ego

See me not as some underling

~

I know the way you see me

Traitor, silver coins warm in my pocket

Am I not just playing my assigned role

So that you might fulfill your great prophecy?

~

I am wise

Wise enough to know a lost cause when I see one

Go to your tomb, lay down your head

I have no faith you’ll return to me
