In the web of lies, they entwine their fate,
A relationship built on falsehood, a love so great,
Or so it seems, for in the shadows, truth does hide,
And the love they share, is but a clever disguise.
With fabricated tales, they win each other’s heart,
A masquerade of love, a work of art,
But when the veil lifts, and reality sets in,
The cracks begin to show, the love starts to thin.
They fake their wealth, their family’s noble name,
Their faith, a mere pretense, all just a game,
To walk down the aisle, with the one they desire,
But the foundation’s weak, the love’s a burning fire.
Fights and arguments, a daily, bitter strife,
The love they once shared, now a distant, fading life,
Extra-marital affairs, a lucrative trade,
For one of the spouses, a heart no longer swayed.
In this deceitful union, love’s lost its way,
A bond built on lies, can never last the day,
For when the truth comes out, and the masks fall away,
The relationship crumbles, in a most dismal gray.
Oh, the price they pay, for their dishonesty,
A love that’s lost, a heart that’s broken, a legacy,
Of shattered dreams, and a love that’s no more,
A deceitful union, that was never meant to soar.
