Betrayed Poem by Randy McClave

As Jesus spoke to all that would hear
Maybe with a sadness and even with a tear,
He was disappointed, but he was not afraid
From one amongst him, he had been betrayed,
And then came the proverbial kiss upon his cheek
Christ then knew that his life was bleak,
As he was betrayed by the one that he trusted
Now as I read of that, I am mad and disgusted.

I looked upon my bed where my wife had laid
She is gone again, and I she had betrayed,
I think of all the promises and vows that she broke
While I was asleep, and even when I awoke,
She was unfaithful and untrue while she wore our ring
The one true object that I trusted more than anything,
I trusted her with my soul but her love was a charade
As she gave me a kiss, and then I was betrayed.

GOD said to be faithful to your spouse and yourself
As when you cheat, you are destroying someone else,
So as they nailed and crucified Jesus upon the cross
Where he would die slowly, and a friend would be lost,
In a tomb he was placed where he would be laid
And all this was because, by a friend he was betrayed,
I now think of myself and how I wast treated
My wife she betrayed me, as she too lied and cheated.

On my knees to GOD, I have prayed
I ask for forgiveness, for all that have been betrayed.
