Betrayal

judas
had his day.
his thirty pieces of silver
in a small
sack,
how easy it is for some
to betray.
to give
up
and surrender those
who have done
no harm,
but only loved and loved,
sweating blood
in the garden
all night as one
prayed.
it's so easy
to dismiss each other,
to let
go
and live in darkness,
destroying lives
without a care
or thought,
so hard understand
how
so many can get lost,
never again to find
their way.
