My Brother, My Brothers.
I just became like you
Rage,
Anger.
A Monster.
It feels good to grab your neck,
to take life, to take vengeance.
I let go,
I step back,
I sit.
I will
not reach out against you.
My hand will not reach out to harm
lest it being cut off and thrown in the pits of hell.
My brother, my brothers
to harm you would harm me more
to replay horrors just like these
over and over and,
know the sin I've done and,
yet live as if righteous.
No.
I just became like you
horror,
hatred.
The devil himself.
I know
right.
I know
right from wrong.
It lies in the pit of my heart where still
I choose to do wrong often.
Why?
Is my
anger,
hate,
sorrow,
soo deep that
I choose my own poison over healing remedies.
Still there is
one.
One who chose my path.
With all that
I am.
After failure, and darkness calls me back.
With love to love. Shows me the price for love.
So extreme, just as fervent as the moods of
anger,
hatred,
sorrow.
My brother, my brothers
I shall
not respond with just love but
with love of the most powerful because, he has shown me.
I will
show you love.
