A Brother Is A Brother, A Sister Is A Sister Poem by Anhelica Velasqsuez

A Brother Is A Brother, A Sister Is A Sister



I refuse to back down
not gonna let them win now
They willl NEVER see
all the hurt and pain they cause me

War spread like disease
so much for world peace,
Brother against Brother
and Sister versus Sister
Nothin outa it but burns and blisters

Its just not right
As different as day or night
I didnt even know
now my guilt just wont go

I knew of tradgedys
but i ignored them
i didnt quiete understand
and i really still dont

But it causes pain,
And over what?
what's the damn point?
money? power? land?
What the hell? !

Because someone is different?
A brother is a brother
skin shouldnt matter

Because they'r not from YOUR
town? your country?
A sister is a sister,
they are from your world
thats what counts now

I know im saying
this in vain
and you will just ignore
my words, and go on
but at least i spoke at all
I'm not letting pain go unseen...

'silence is the worst sin of all'

may your dreams be sweet
and your problems blow away with ease
hope your eyes can droop with sleep
and your heart stay warm
your soul full with joy,
pray your whole with no threat of harm,
and your strong enough not to give up... to back down.
i hope your all whole now.
