The Cross by Lawrana M., 14
(Excerpted from Real Teens, Real Stories, Real Life)
The cross that hangs from my neck
is a symbol of who I am
What I hold close to my heart
some people will never understand
He died for them, too,
not just for me
If they knew someone died
on Calvary
Would they wear this cross
like me?
Or is this a secret that everyone knows
and chooses not to believe
Not comprehending it comes with love
and forgiveness for eternity
