The kiss of Judus

Affection overtaken by evils self need
treachery covered by smiled disbelief
thirty pieces of silver for planting the Kiss
Judas's metaphorical finger deceives

his soul sold to the devil, oh so cheap
and all the guilt was laid at his feet
to Kiss the chance of redemption goodby
brings an ironic tear to my eye

a Kiss to signal how deep we feel
a scenario couched in romantic appeal
its consequences sometimes hard to retract
for Jesus just like a stab in the back
