Judas

</> like Judas, i too oft kissed compassion on the cheek... betraying my conscience to feed my hungers... too oft dug shallow graves in my haste to keep going.... too oft took a sip of water, and poured the rest on the ground.... too oft crossed myself, gave a couple dollars to a begger, but kept some back for myself.... too oft looked into the eyes of need, and only saw a stranger.... too oft gave half a heart.... telling myself it was all i had.... too oft painted the picture without seeing myself in it.... too oft failed to listen, to hear, and to change... just a kiss on the cheek... and hands i cant wash clean!
