Good Friday: Do You Hear That?

Do you hear that?
It’s the man denying,
It’s the cock crowing,
It’s his heart simply breaking in two.
Do you hear that?
It’s His skin ripping,
It’s the veil tearing,
It’s their lives being pulled apart.
Do you hear that?
It’s the earth splitting,
It’s history dividing,
It’s the Father turning away.
Do you hear that?
Silence.

    It’s the silence. That’s the wrenching-est sound. It’s the sound we hate the most, when we feel abandoned by God. Jesus felt that way, too, as did all his followers. Still so awful.
