Two

Two
In different rooms
Of the same round gold house

No view
Always looking through
Towards the other prison brother

A tune
They both once knew 
Is now an illusive wail on the wind

They lose
And search for more to lose
A sacrifice to the God that gives back past

Inevitably 
A great storm comes
And tears the whole gold round house and all it's walls to the ground

Two alone
Staring at each other, unclothed, exposed
Seeing things they'd both hoped to dispose

Then one
Not wanting to see, runs
To embrace the other, see over their shoulder 

But one
Has seen the question
They'll need to answer from now til forever

Or maybe from now 
until they turn around 
and leave the other, leave the round gold prison, and their brother
