Last night of Christ

THE LAST NIGHT OF CHRIST

Darkness is not the absence of light

It is something more uncontrollable and sinister

It is not a place but a chasm We have all been there at least once more than once

And though we could not see You nor hear You

You were there Waiting Because the darkness is not dark for You at least not always.

You cried.

But not for the pain of others

But because You had to go away. We could not understand it or did not want to or both T

he impending darkness was too deep for us to grasp.

But so was the light.

One had to precede the other It has always been this way from the beginning.

The tears fell from Your eyes and then from ours before every light went out.

Time itself wanted to die with You

You told us it would be like this not with your words but with your life itself

A man full of sorrows who knows suffering

We did not want to see we looked away so we satisfied Your true essence:

He from whom everyone hides their face
