In my brother's shadow II by EiamArwen
Once again it has been long. Here you go, enjoy.

Now he is gone… and this, this is what I sought?
To see the children and women murdered, I will have justice brought…
He was brave to do this, I now see I didn’t understand
I wanted to be the first born, but its complications I did not see, I did not understand
And now I’m here, fighting for my life
I am afraid of the battles, of my many sacrifice
I see now the fear, my dear brother showed
and now I fill his footsteps, into the deathly unknown
I am afraid, a coward of a son
I have to finish something, that has been since long begun
I cannot fill his steps, the way he once did
I don’t have his courage and pride, instead I shuddered, and hid
And now I see, why I was second best
I shall continue in his shadow, while in his vain death, he now rest…
