The eyes of the saint

Larry Lowry 1959 (Pryor)

Free verse
The eyes of saint - I was he that was crucified. I was saint Francis wearing crown of thorns. I was she who was burned at the stake and those who gave false witness against her she forgave them. I am he who will suffer as others will give false witness against me. I would heal every heart around me but you do not see me. I cannot hate I'm he who suffers the world I forgive you.
