When Judas' rule the day

Once upon a time in ancient times
Lived a man named Judas
Seemed Humble but was wily,
Was always there ready to please
Joined the Lord and played his wiles
And became one of the chosen twelve.

As one of the chosen twelve
He lived and shared life with the Lord
Always professing love and eternal devotion
He followed him wherever he went
And, to all around there was no one
As devoted and as humble as he.

But, all the while his heart was cold
Scheming and making plans to betray,
His master and Lord, in the most heinous way
For a few pieces of silver
He did it in the end
With just a HUG and a KISS.

Just a hug and a kiss mean so much
To so many in this world today
True love and feelings of loved ones
Who mean and care so much
Are swept aside and forgotten when the Judas’
Encircle you with hugs and kisses.

Oh ! these sweet hugs and kisses of betrayal
Seem to blind so many around us
While true love and feelings from their loved ones
That are so profound and true are ignored.
But true love sustains in the end
From all these assaults of hugs and kisses.

Why do bonds of love and relationships
Have to go through such pain and sufferings?
Why not the victims who are our loved ones ever realise
The existence of so many Judas’
Who lure and blind them today, will tomorrow
Will only betray with a hugs and a kisses.

As he once did our Lord.
