Judas Kisses for M lady Helen Unknown
Judas Kisses
The purple shadows far below
the silver moon. Play hide and seek
they quickly come, as quickly go.
Transient and impermanent
like fleeting kisses on the cheek
Kisses bestowed with false intent.
By so called friends who will betray
your confidence without a thought.
your cherished secrets give away
uncaring of the harm they’ve wrought.
A cause to them for merriment.
Kisses bestowed with false intent
a cause to them for merriment.
