"Judas Kiss"
by
John Shirley
Lights up on speaker, sitting in a folding chair, legs crossed in whatever manner he finds most comfortable and natural. His voice is level and sincere; his goal lies in sincerity and not in performance.
Will you let me inside,
Inside of what you feel,
And look me in the eye,
Instead of looking down?
I promise not to laugh.
Will you let me come in,
Be part of what you are,
And tell me what it is
That weakens your resolve?
I promise not to leave.
If youre feeling something,
Feel free to express it.
If youre feeling nothing,
Dont try to repress it.
I promise not to judge.
Just tell me how you feel,
But only if its real.
Im sorry. I cant bear
Another Judas kiss.
I promise not to cry.
But lying isnt fair.
The truth begins with this.
Im sorry. I cant bear
Another Judas kiss.
