For All Those Who Died

For all those who cried aloud\nBut whose tears were never heard\nFor questioning one almighty father\nOf a heavenly distanced world\nBeloved thee who submit\nThe holy writings assured\nThe golden cross stained with innocent blood\nBut stand yet a thousand heavenward\nBurning naked but smiling\nNot full of fear but pride\nKnowing death alone could cleanse them\nOf the reasons for which they all die\nFor all those who died\nFor all those whose great beauty\nStirred their torturers to rage\nAnd for all those whose great ugliness\nDid the same\nFor all those who cried aloud in vain\nFor mercy on the rack\nBut whom of dying naked in scorn\nNot ashamed\nBurning naked but smiling\nNot full of fear but pride\nKnowing death alone could cleanse them\nOf the reasons for which they all died\nFor all those who died\nPleas for mercy signs of guilt\nNaked bodies broken on the wheel\nTears sign the confession\nWith crusted blood lips sealed\nTrial by water
