"Partners in Defiance: A Tale of Woe"
In twilight's hush, where shadows play,
Two rebels conspired, in a secret way.
Their whispers wove, a web of deceit,
As they schemed against, the light of what's right.
With hearts afire, and souls so bright,
They forged an alliance, in the dark of night.
Their bond was strong, their will unbroken,
Together they vowed, to leave the truth unspoken.
But like a serpent, their gossip did creep,
Poisoning minds, and hearts that did keep.
Their words, a wildfire, that spread far and wide,
Leaving scars, that would never subside.
Their rebellion raged, like a tempest's roar,
But in the end, it was they who fell to the floor.
For when they stood, against the light of day,
Their darkness was exposed, and their schemes slayed.
Their partnership, a house of cards, so frail,
Collapsed beneath, the weight of their own fail.
Their whispers, now a distant, fading sound,
As they lay defeated, on the ground they'd found.
Their rebellion, a failure, so complete,
A testament to, the power of truth to seep.
For when we scheme, and gossip, and rebel against the light,
We ultimately fall, into the darkness of night.
