An Unwilling End

The angel with chocolate eyes looked to his brother with tears

The first time they had seen each other in thousands of years

He stood his ground, ready to fight

Knowing this would be their last night

 

Why big brother? He asked

Hoping this pain wouldn’t last

Why would you do this? Why would you leave?

There is more to this than you believe

The oldest angel holding back his tears

Looked away realizing his fears

Because little brother, everything father said was wrong

I fell because I didn’t belong

 

Youngest though he was, he knew what he had to do

He charged his brother when he didn’t have a clue

A battle of angels, brothers began

And to the end their tears ran
