The Brotherhood

 

A hand reaches out while cruel stares penetrate,

Outsiders misjudge, criticize and hate.

Like no other ally you collaborated with me exceptionally,

And like a friend your gift of wounds I can trust expectantly.

My brother from the same mother not twins yet in the end,

We share the same eyes, the same hair, the same skin.

A closeness that no friend can measure up to,

A rivalry no enemy can treasure up to.

Buried deep in the rubble; lost in this worldly trash,

But still you forgive me for mistakes made in the past.

And the unexpected twist of loyalty precipitates,

The antidote to a society that deteriorates.

The fullness of a heartbeat of a strong legacy,

The wonders and rhythms of a sweet melody. 

My temper and rage feeds my hostile sage, 

Instead of judging me you pray to God to bless my days.

My heart goes just Wow! after reading this. The re-uniting of you with your brother after a quite violent past (I think) and forgiving each other is just to awsome. And your vocabulary is exceptionally good. My favorate lines:

My temper and rage feed my hostile sage,
Instead of Judging me you pray to God to bless my days.

Awsome work. keep it up! ~KA~

Unity is so important.No matter who or what the situaution is.
People must try to understand how to come together for the betterment of the future.
Valuable lesson.I feel like your a master sensei teaching us the pupil the art of the
craft. My Part: And the unexpected twist of loyalty precipitates, the antidote to a society that deteriorates.
This poem is the truth. Unity is strength and strength is power.
Peace and Love
