To me thou art no more


Laugh deceivingly at festive dances
 
justifying a noble man’s disgust
 
sweet intoxication into trances
 
doth thou actually believe in trust?
 
Surely it must run in thy wicked blood
 
as demons writhe behind thy trait’r eyes
 
greed and lust for power, ruin, like a flood
 
Apology? I can only despise.
 
Your words like acid kisses upon expos’d skin
 
thou hast lur’d and murder’d and concealed
 
Actions portray thy most desir’d sin
 
the cairn of scabs on my heart I have peeled.
 
   Sanity I lost; I despise, I abhor,
 
 Dearest Brother? To me thou art no more.
