The Case
The case
Betrayal of longtime brotherhood
Hatred ploughed between them
Fighting ,disgruntled and an air of enemity
Love is seen in their eyes no more
Not no more of a God's case
The ancestors have washed their hands
Loved ones turn a blind eye
The case of brothers, raising arms against each other
Brother against Brother, standing face to face
Ready to end each others lives
Guns cocked , bloody hearts
Evil roaming everywhere
A dark day, the sun confused with eclipse
Sabotaged plans of success
Whispers from ear to ear
The storm is unstoppable
Its like summer in winters day
The collision is inevitable
The line has been drawn
Let the fighting begin
The case of a bond of brotherhood
Destroyed in seconds
Once friends now the worst enemies
Hearts poisoned with hatred for each other
Willing to fight till the end
Peace divorced from heart
This is the case, the case of brothers at war
Once loving, now enemies
In revenge , they forget to dig their own graves
Forever clouded by their hatred
Nothing good comes up
Death is the end, a result of the case of love misplaced
