I did not know what I was doing
And did not believe to be wrong
I harbored only good intentions
But this you knew for far too long

I did not think that this would happen
And did not ever understand
I tried so hard to do your bidding
But still you had a different plan

I did not know the circumstances
And never had complete control
I only did what you edicted
Now watch me as I play the fool

I do not wish to know the outcome
And do not want my thoughts revised
I play your role for selfless reasons
Knowing I am the one despised

I do not care how I am treated
And spare me any sympathy
I keep my soul inside the shadows
But still you will not leave me be

I know there's not a future for me
And it's hard for me to catch my breath
I read your script and cursed my ending
For me it is the second death

Signed:

Judas Iscariot

hmmm, I guess since I don't understand or accept religious 'demands'...
this would never really be a write my muse could fathom writing.
But it seems you got something
"off your chest" with this?

Midnitesun ~ Getting something off my chest? Well, let me put it this way... I can empathize with Mr. Iscariot and believe his view should be heard.

Gentle Spirit & you both, thanks for reading and commenting.
