Tainted Love

A Poetic Tale of Unholy Matrimony

By Jacob GloryPublished about a year ago β€’ 2 min read

Once upon a time, in a forbidden land,

A union was formed, by an unholy hand,

A marriage of darkness, a bond of despair,

Two souls entwined, in a deadly affair.

The vows were exchanged, with sinister delight,

In the dead of night, away from the light,

The bride wore black, with a sinister grin,

The groom, a phantom, with a soul so grim.

Their love was twisted, a toxic blend,

A union condemned, that could never mend,

For they were not meant to be, in this world,

Their unholy matrimony, a curse unfurled.

They danced in darkness, a macabre waltz,

Their love, a haunting, a sinister pulse,

Their union reeked of pain and sorrow,

A bond that brought no hope for a better tomorrow.

Their home was shrouded, in a cloud of gloom,

Where no light could pierce, through the thick fume,

Their hearts were empty, devoid of love,

Their unholy matrimony, a poison thereof.

Their days were filled, with endless strife,

A toxic relationship, with no sign of life,

They fought and bickered, in a never-ending feud,

Their love, a dark secret, forever subdued.

Their souls were tainted, by their unholy vow,

Their hearts were heavy, with regrets now,

For they had sold their souls, to a love so bleak,

A love that left them shattered and weak.

Their once-promising future, now seemed bleak,

A love so dark, it made them weak,

Their bond was cursed, a doomed alliance,

A love that brought no joy, only defiance.

In the end, they realized, their mistake,

Their unholy matrimony, a dreadful ache,

They parted ways, with heavy hearts,

Their love, a tale of tragic arts.

Now, their story is a cautionary tale,

Of a love that was doomed to fail,

A warning to those who seek love's embrace,

To choose wisely, and not fall for love's false grace.

For unholy matrimony, a toxic bond,

Can leave scars, that are beyond,

A love that's built on lies and deceit,

Will never bring happiness, but only defeat.

So heed this tale, and take it to heart,

Before you vow, in love's sweet art,

Make sure it's pure, and true and kind,

A love that's blessed, and not blind.
