Sons and Brothers


Sons of earth who live with troubled souls, 
Which dwell in unforgettable pasts 
That reign as 'King' as they roam mother earth...
Nurtured by hope and dreams of a high life -
A better tomorrow...
Still... 
We wait...half a century on! 
No one but us knows best, that patience is a virtue, 
But isn’t it true, 
It's about time we got what’s been coming? 
Why we still yearning? 
I don’t advocate violence, but 
It seems arms should start singing, 
Swing them bones, 
Lest my bones rot away!
