I killed

deviantart Gabriel by Guro

I killed the monster
that took over my brother
his blood is splattered on my wings.

But in doing so I touched the venomous
evil running through its veins.

My hand is starting to change as I speak.
I will not turn into the murdering beast he was.
I will not have my other brothers carry the burden
of my death on their conscience.

I still grip this mighty sword in my hand,
I will take my own life, if things get bad
so that others can live.
I will not turn into the murderous beast
my twin did.
