Take This

by Dale Critchley

Take this
A scourge to the back
Nails to the hands
Gall to the tongue

Take these
The burdens on my mind
The pain in my life
The sin in my soul

Take this
A spear to the side
Thorns to the head
Pain to the heart

Take me
A soiled soul
A poisoned mind
A broken body

Take this
Take me.
