Haiku Betrayed
I did nothing wrong
Loved you more than my own life
You betrayed my trust
I knew you would fall
Although I hoped I was wrong
Betrayed by a kiss
The price on my head
Thirty pieces of silver
My enemies paid
I was insulted
They beat me almost to death
Crown of thorns I wore
You saw what you did
In the end you were sorry
But it was too late
I waited your call
You never asked forgiveness
Better you weren’t born
I hung on the cross
My entire body in pain
Jeering from the crowd
Forgive them I said
They are ignorant dear Lord
They don’t know their crime
Judas, betrayer
Your greed became your downfall
I Jesus you wronged
