The Betrayal of Brothers
A single error in judgment,
A glimpse of time that follows us,
Generation to Generation.
This clouds our DNA, forcing legacies,
Against fathers and sons,
Brother against brother.
Decisions made,
Apologizes ignored,
Forgiveness asks, and answers become silent.
Those decisions are unforgivable.
God's law, but is it man's law?
Many do not understand,
Others don't care.
Families are broken,
Never to be repaired,
Abels murder,
Cains regret, and,
A debt we can never forget.
