Judas Kiss

a Judas Kiss 
scorches my lips 
you didn't tip your hand, 
show your will 
or the fact that it was done 
betrayal affronts me 
confounding thoughts and feelings 
all that I thought we were
the silence is deafening
ricocheting through my heart
echoing emptiness and despair 
a perfect deception 
hiding all, 
building walls of departure 
separating fact from fiction 
I did not see it
trusting, believing, 
blinded by what I wanted 
the joke is on me 
the Judas Kiss 
that scorched me will 
burns eternal in my soul
