There once was a kingdom of gods
Far into the world beyond our deeds
Two sons to the king, who ruled in truth
Two sons, two kings, yet none to rule
The kingdom awaited its king of new
While the eldest frolicked in pleasure
The youngest brooded in thoughts of court
Both as distant as the moon was to sun
Despite the king's commands to ascend his right
The crown prince dared to descend to depths
He fell in love with a maiden down there
Drawn to her withering life from far
He followed her as the breeze in her hair
Moving mountains to pave her way
The gods above saw the golden chance
To rid the throne of the prince forever
They fed the king with lies and truths
Making him command the second prince in haste
"Bring back the mortal’s head tied to your brother’s wrist.
Soon, the crown awaits the rightful heir."
He left to carry out his father's word
Yet he too fell in love before soon
The girl he thought he were to end
Became the one he would end himself for
A mistake so divine that he considered blessed
The brothers lived days of peace
With their lovers, but it was a quick breath
Soon kings and gods descended upon their joy
Giving the ultimate test of love
One was asked to give up his dreams
To ascend the throne and rule in pain
The younger prince bowed his head to it
He wore the crown though it made him bleed
He erased his traces from his lover’s mind
And became the silent god in her life
The older one, on the other hand, gave up his life
Of power and divinity and immortal truth
He became the lover and not the god
Mortal and weak beside his love
Both brothers gave up their lives—
One for love, and the other for life
