ForevaXena's FanFic . . . Judas' Kiss
Disclaimers:
Nothing in the way of sex or violence, but I will give it an
angst alert. This piece
was written some time ago and as with Phone Call this reflects the pain
of a good friend. This does
short story does make reference to biblical text, this is not to be
taken as gospel and I would hope that whether you consider yourself to
be a Christian or not you find no offense here. As
I have said before this story was written some months ago and as the
season of Easter approaches I thought it would be a good time to post
it. Acknowledgements:
To those who have not scattered know you will always be loved.
The night is so dark.
I look up not to see stars, but my own tears. One I have loved betrays me.
Judas would you betray with a kiss?
How many times we have spoken and laughed?
How many times I have wiped your tears away?
How many times have you helped me through a dark night such as
this? How many times have
you kissed me with the warmth of friendship heating your lips? Judas
will you betray me with a kiss?
Where are those others I also loved?
Have they scattered to the winds as well?
Was my devotion not gift enough?
Was my adoration not treasure enough?
Judas will you betray me with a kiss?
The wind hints to me of a wrong that has been done.
She cups her hands to my ear and whispers of those who grieve.
I plead, “Gentle wind, I do not know from where you come, and I
do not know where you go, yet do not leave me lost and alone.
Do not fly away without telling me what transgression I have
committed.” The breeze
only howls and moans in response determined to keep her secrets.
She frustrates me and leaves me shattered.
The unforgiving wind leaves me alone to bleed, leaves me to
suffer with my confusion and pain.
Judas would you betray me with a kiss? Where
have I wronged you? Where I
have placed pain in your heart instead of joy and laughter?
Where have my lips cursed you instead of lifting you up?
Judas would you betray me with a kiss?
In dark shadows you have hidden. In hushed whispers you speak to
those hidden specters of intrigue and deception. Tales of pain
exchanged. Yet do these tales reach my ears so that I can mend the
breach? Was there a way to
right a wrong? Judas would
you betray me with a kiss?
Can a wrong that has never been brought to light be righted? When the light of day shines upon it and dispels the
darkness, will there be anything left to see?
If I remove the bandage from your wound to heal you, will there
be a wound to see? Judas
would you betray me with a kiss?
Without a groan I
will take the lashings the memories of love for you have to give.
Without complaint I will allow my wounds to bleed.
Judas would you betray me with a kiss? Silently
I will remain in the darkness. Without
reproach I will carry my cross up the mount where simple key strokes
will drive the nails into my flesh.
Silently I walk through the throng of those who would cry,
“What crime has this one committed?”
Judas would you betray me with a kiss? Tendrils
of light begin to illuminate the sky yet this black veil will never be
lifted from my heart. In
darkness my love will remain where soon it will wither and die.
With death comes the only true release from pain and suffering
and I will invite her to my table to recline with me.
I will let her caress me. Her
cold lips will press to mine and in death I will be renewed.
