Brothers turn on brothers in this wretched pit
In a game of hunting and being hunted.
Fighting in the mud with teeth, nails, and fists
Till only one brother remains.
Brother Owl is stabbed in the back and chest,
Killed by the grinning Brother Fox.
Brother Fox falls to the iron claw of Brother Razor,
Who is then gutted by Brother Wrath.
Brother Wrath's head is crushed by Brother Whistler's foot,
and Brother Whistler falls to the savage bite of Brother Snake.
They crave the taste of blood,
Feasting on the weak with knives.
A gang of vicious killers,
They prey on the helpless with no mercy.
I reached out in desperation,
Hoping for a comforting hand.
But instead I have found a cold claw
Piercing through me and scraping the life out of me,
Leaving only an empty husk.
Love is a lie to make us hurt more,
Better to be alone in this life.
Grab your sword and slash your brother's throat,
For the love of Brother is a lie.
Brotherhood is death in this evil place,
Better to be alone, loving no one.
Murder your brothers and wash their blood off your hands,
Only then will you be clean.
Dear brother of mine, Brother Dagger,
Lies dead in the rain with his blood washing away.
Whatever love there was between us was just an illusion,
Created by the devil's hand,
Now cast aside to reveal the pale truth.
Brother plans to kill Brother
And rob him of all he has.
Blameless when born and after death,
To be as though you never were;
Abandoned and without peace.
While you live though it is called life,
You are more like corpses waiting to be buried,
Already you are half-dead.
Drifting through the streets, purposeless.
Maybe you are one such soul,
Purposeless, directionless, and doomed.
I am cursed with the strength of a monster,
I am a killer without a conscience or care.
My blade cuts through anything here.
A beast hides inside me,
Its abilities mine to use when I so choose.
Clinging on to dear life
In sweet, cursed desperation,
With the stink of human flesh on my hands,
I escape into the night wrapped in bloody bandages.
I am an Animal, driven to kill and destroy.
My hunger for flesh is never satiated.
Let the innocent blood I have shed
Wash away the sorrow of my fallen brothers.
The Brotherhood writhes in pain,
It bleeds from its many wounds.
Brother Honesty's head lies in a black pool.
Brother Justice has been run through.
Brother Trust's body burns.
Brother Hope is smashed to pieces.
I can't bear this pain. It seizes my soul and won't let go.
Brother Love, where are you?
I see the darkness of the world
That has swallowed everything I hold dear.
A cold wind blows through my soul,
Leaving me empty and alone.
There is no one left but Brother Hatred.
Perhaps he has gone out to bury his blade in someone's chest.
Drawn into the devil's abyss,
I have lost all hope of returning.
I gasp for air as the waters rise above me
And drown in the depths of my hatred.
Very well written! I like it!
