Veiled Vengeance


In the shadows where secrets dwell, 

Veiled vengeance whispers its tale to tell.

A silent promise, a vow so deep, 

In the night where shadows creep.



Eyes that smolder, cold and hard,

 A heart consumed, a soul scarred. 

Veiled in darkness, hidden well,

Beneath the surface, tales to quell.



A score to settle, debts unpaid, 

In the dance of shadows played. 

A mask of calm, a heart of fire, 

Burning with a dark desire.



In every step, in every breath, 

Veiled vengeance embraces death. 

A plan unfurls, a plot well laid,

 In shadows deep, the price is paid.



Whispers carry on the wind, 

Of vengeance sought, of sins pinned. 

A path of retribution's light, 

Where wrongs are set to make things right.



Yet in the veiled vengeance's grasp, 

Lies a truth, a fate to clasp. 

For vengeance, veiled in shadow's shade, 

Consumes the heart that's often swayed.



In the final act, the curtain falls, 

Veiled vengeance hears fate's calls. 

For in the end, what's truly sought, 

Is peace of heart, in vengeance wrought.
