Broken Bond |
 |
|
You spoke to me of Brotherhood;
Told me how much you
cared
Explained to me the eternal bond
That we, in
fraternity, would share
Soothed my ears with earnest
words
That sang golden upon the air.
But when in need
I turned to you
I found that you were not there.
It would seem that your �Brothers'
Must always agree with
you
For anything that you believe
Like the Holy Grail,
is true.
But, all unaware, I let dissent
Dance
upon my lips one day
And in an instant I discovered
Brotherhood had slipped away.
Vanished as though it
had never been
Not a trace of it to be found
And I was
left bewildered,
Searching for the tie that bound
Us together forever in a bond
You'd declared stronger
than steel
Only to realize that in anger
You had
decided to break the seal.
So go your way, my
erstwhile friend
But pay close heed to what you say,
For I think, in the end, you'll discover
That it's only
yourself you betray. |
