Elegy of a Silent Farewell
In the olden days of 1800s lore,
Where the car has not yet been invented,
The story lies in a rich mans mansion,
An adopted kid had just been presented.
The man already had a child,
A very smart and kind one,
The other kid was quite the opposite,
But he was not reviled.
The kid had a much vile plan,
To kill the boys father
But another person knew the child's plan
That child was the adopted one’s brother
When the clock struck 2 on a winter night,
The vile boy snuck to his fathers bed,
A child which he raised and trusted,
Was the sole reason the fathers was dead
The vile boy’s brother was devastated by the news,
He mourned his father’s death,
The boy wanted to avenge his old man,
Hed kill his brother with deft
3 days later the battle began,
The boys fought ruthless like beasts
But eventually the good brother stopped,
Because the violent fight finally ceased.
The evil one lay on the floor,
The good one with blood in his hands.
A family which he loved and cared for,
Now he is the only man that stands.
