Peter's Confession

I said I would never betray him,
but I was scared.
Already,
it had been a long night.

I saw them take him away,
then a rooster crowed
and I remembered what I'd been told.

What could I do? Run shouting after the girl:
"I lied! I lied!"

Most distressing, he once called me his Rock.
Just ask yourself:
Did he mean it? Or did he mock?
