sanctimonious lies
pure eyes, radiant white
a heart of darkness
deceit is well alive
at the altar stand
veil soon to be removed
the husband anxious
bride covering her shame
he stares intense at her
she shutters at his glare
so loving, so true
she knows the truth is known
broken, bruised, deceived
she collapses to floor
crying, lying not
life fades as she weeps long
he stoops to her side
from behind shy, red eyes
she sees and behold
the crown, thorns buried deep
blood trickles along his brow
hands bruised, pierced through
clear tears streak, stream down
he speaks forgiveness whole
the whore he welcomes in
the thief he will pardon
the stains removed now
upon us his face shines
