Note: This poem is inspired by a couple from Cassandra Clare's new novel Lord of Shadows. I love Emma Carstairs and Julian Blackthorn but I don't see them getting a happy ending. I don't wish to spoil the novel for anyone as I have not finished reading it myself.

We tried to play the game
And win but what we got
Could destroy us or ruin
Those around us, loving

You was a privilege, you
Loving me was a curse
Now we're running to
Escape a fate so dark

It'll kill whoever stands
In its way. Parabatai we
Stand united, forbidden
Is love we tried to make

Come to life, I'm sorry I
Lied, Mark could never
Feel the same as I. Fey
Or not, they are honest

But can spin the truth
To drive you round till
You're dizzy, spell or not
We're doomed if we break

Our bond.
