Betrayal

I had to do it

I had no choice

I was confused

For months I walked,

I followed him everywhere

Listening to all he said

People loved him

Wanting his help

Hanging on every word

However there were others

They didn't believe

And sought to kill

Who was this man?

A truth or a falsehood?

Who do I believe?

People loved him

Others hated him

But he loved me

He loved me,

Yet I did wrong

I led him to death

For greed of money

I sold him out

Gave him to death

With just one kiss

I destroyed him

And lost myself
