Brother against Brother

By: Mikayla Beaulieu

Silence filled the air,

Blocking all sound,

Erasing all life.

Two Warriors faced each other,

In a war unwanted,

In a war that turned brother against brother.

One in armor of silver,

The other in iron armor,

The one in silver a life giver.

They faced each other,

Unwilling to fight in a war,

That turned brother against brother.

The warriors saw the rising sun,

And knew at once,

Their two nations could be one.

Casting aside the swords they had held so long,

While fighting each other,

Their voices raised in song,

At the end of a war that turned brother against brother.
