An illusion of safety

Hark
in the distance
I hear bells toll
another has died
I make my way to the square
sanity left behind
in Pandora's box
the key hidden

they announced his name
he was a brother of mine
this is no stranger
on whose command did he die

I rush back home
and search for the key
it was sold eons ago
I traded it for

an illusion of safety
to my brother's master
