Dark Arts Betray The Star-Crossed Lovers

A poem about witchcraft and doomed love.

By Tanya DoolinPublished 3 years ago • 1 min read

Our love 'twas writ by stars in night's sky

An epic romance by magic's design

Together we wrought bond strong as cold iron

Believing our love by fate's hand divine

But 'twas not to be, Fortune turned 'gainst us

Our star-cross'd match ended in tragedy

Fate's cruel hand tore us apart most tragic

Left my heart broken, consumed by agony

The chill of loneliness fills my barren soul

Colder than the tomb's harsh, loveless embrace

The warmth of thy love, now lost to me forever

No magic or potion can e'er replace

So I turn to dark arts, forbid and archaic

To ease the pain of our tale unfinished

With chilling magicks I shall have revenge

On fate that betwixt lovers set barriers

No spell recalls what heavens stole from us

But perhaps some solace it may grant me

For our epic love cut short by destiny

I conjure magic to set our fate partly right
