The lamb said “Shh” and I yelled. 
The lamb held out his hand and I broke every bone there with my grip,
 because I didn't believe I would be safe. 
The lamb promised beautiful and I covered myself in dirt. 
the lamb said “this much” and I drove the nails. 
The lamb held me in my sleep and I curse his name as I woke. 
He loves. he loves. he loves. 
I am holding his heart already. 
And I am learning that I can be sustained on his blood alone, 
that I can give my own hear to him.
 The lamb said “Shh” and I yelled, 
so he made the world around me louder so I could obey.
