It is inconceivable to me that Christ while on the Cross would cry out “My God my God, why has thou forsaken me?”

I will not convince you of the paradoxical dual nature of Christ, since the nature of God cannot be fully studied by a being of lesser intelligence (meaning all of us), only analogized. However, this question is easy: Christ is reciting Psalm 22 and simultaneously fulfilling it, the same way he read Isaiah at the beginning of His ministry and simultaneously fulfilled it.
