brotherhood

watched the show.. it was a tear jerker.. sigh..

through the tears of gladness
and the bond of blood
lies a bind much to behold
a vow of everlasting love
to stick by trial upon trial
 
and in times of uphievals
when shortcomings shine brightest
its these bonds that stand by
a call to share a burden
when one has nothing left
 
all this while the purpose goes blur
and all you see is evil and foe
you no longer fight to save your blood
but a fight for power, wealth and pride
ones selflishness will conquer
 
muster a lifetime of regret
for the life you swore to save
is now dust to dust, you murderer
carry with you the weight of the world
for you've killed your very own
 
he has forgiven you, brother
but you're shrouded in guilt
as you fight to avenge and repay
he fights to bring you back
to the affectionate soul you were
 
and for a split second
you finally listen to your heart
under fire you embrace
to save him and be set free
you, a painful scarifice.
