Fallen

a love poem

She was old...
Her body was wrinkled
Her face unattractive
And in her heart dwelled hate and sorrow
Her soul was troubled and lost

She was miserable

But He still loved her
He still fell for her
His heart went out to her

He prayed for her when she deceived Him
And forgave her when she spat in His face and denied Him
He longed for her although she wanted nothing to do with Him

He loved her so much, that He agreed
to be nailed to the cross

So much agony, pain and sorrow He suffered through-
All out of love...
The Greatest Love ever known to man

Can there ever be a love greater than this?

And even now, away on His throne in the heavens
He pleads her case to His Father everyday

He's still there, as always
knocking on her door

With a longing heart, He waits for His bride
And He won't rest
Until she finally answers...
