i heard you calling,
early in the morning.
i heard your voice
and all the pain
                  brother, please!
                  i'm sorry.
i heard you beg.
beg me to bring
you back.
                   please, take me back!          
                  i can't.
i heard you cry.
for me to come
and fix you.
and rescue you
from the darkness
                  brother, save me!
                  no, brother. i won't.
i heard you scream
and i watched as
Heaven's Morning Star
bent and broke
as my brother
declared his hate
                  i hate you, brother. i never loved you.
                  (there was no answer.)
day after day,
night after night,
i listened and heard.
but the important part
is i did nothing.
                  forgive me, brother.
                  *never.
