The Longing

The Longing

Where trust is lost, in shadows of deceit,
A tale unfolds, with twists and turns unseen,
Betrayal’s sting, its mark forever deep,
The longing lingers, in hearts where hope convenes.

In realms of power, fortune’s deadly quest,
A family’s legacy, entwined with greed,
The battle rages, secrets unconfessed,
A web is woven, where lies and truth concede.

Emerging figures, with motives undisclosed,
Masks of charm, concealing darker hues,
A chessboard played, where pawns are oft disposed,
In this game of trust, no one will refuse.

A web of lust, entangled with desire,
Passions ignite, consuming souls aflame,
But the flames burn bright, till all tend to tire,
As hearts are broken, forever changed.

In this intricate dance of power and fate,
Where loyalties shift, in shadows of verse,
One must question, who is to dominate,
For trust is fragile, easily dispersed.
