I've never had a brother
No blood of my blood, no seed of my mother
But if bonds forged in steel
And tempered with heat
Can sing the same song
When hammered upon

This chain link camaraderie
Would shriek:

I've never had a brother,
Or name of my name
But my heart, always open, might quake the same

A man such as you,
Who plays with fire, but has  never once burned
Who stands up a new man while everyone turns

Your character speaks the music
That is the background to your steps
You don't need lyrics
To speak with your hands

You are free will
You aren't a *******
You are who you're meant to be
Here .
Now.
You're a son of a mother
My BFL brother
Yippee-Kye-yay (Merry Christmas) *******
Rough draft christmas present for a friend. HALP? How to make it better?
