The betrothed of good is evil; the betrothed of life is death; the betrothed of love is divorce.

My Betrothed
Among the trees i hide-
Running from my betrothed
My mind is getting tired from this,
His evil presence withers my hearts rose.
Why was this burden laid on me?
I do not want to be the Queen of the Darkness
I do not want to be damned from the waters edge,
I do not want to live in this city of stone.
I must run
I must run forever-
But he still follows
Finding me at every corners turn
I think he's getting bored from my running
Instead of seeing him follow me,
I see a great black beast with a shadowed rider,
It can disappeer out of sight, but it's still there beside me.
Waiting for me to start running again
Wanting me to run so it can chase.
My betrothed loves how I try to run
But running does no good.
You hateful man, why do you take joy in my pain?

Bachelor, a peacock; betrothed, a lion; married, an ass.
Maren
Give me my wife Maren and let me speak,
For whom i have betrothed is with love;
And there is no weeping and begging on this love.

Nilay’s Innocence
Nilay a beautiful student
with a wonderous smile.
Diligent in all work all study
admire such studious style.
Keep faith sincerity. Ever alive.
Then brain betrothed beauty.
Fair futures bound far.
People will hold thee close.
Regard love deeply truly.
Wherever chance found thou are.
Nilay thou art perceived.
Defined at surface inflexion fragile.
As a studious student framed
etched within perplex placid smile.
Diligent still receptive.
Endeavour present study.
Stilled admire attentive
industrious study glaze putty.
Thrall futures bound
beauty betrothed brain.
Beware close webbed
beguile reptilian systems insane.
Corruptions poisoned tips;
sudden shot arrows split seen.
Rosy red affixed apples;
straight through yon brain.
Keep faith hope sincerity
ever alive. Preserve honesty.
Then brain betrothed beauty
fair futures bound exceedingly far.
People will hold thee close protectively.
Regard in hearts affectionately.
Love deeply truly. Pray often ardently.
Wherever chance found thou are.

I was irrevocably betrothed to laughter, the sound of which has always seemed to me the most civilised music in the world.

Lingered
She lingered so lone at the place,
But there is more in your family than in your name!
And like a virgin betrothed to a man.

My fiancée
I love her more than her flesh.
I love her more than her shape.
I see her and focus on her face
And view her in full robes.
She doesn’t seem sexy.
No more voluptuous.
Nor tempting to steal a kiss.
She’s been betrothed to me.

Jackie III
Fat as grease and slow as the tortoise,
I am like a virgin who is now betrothed;
But, take care of the woman you've humbled,
Because, Jackie is the name of my friend.

Holy Sonnet XIV: Batter my heart
Batter my heart, three-personed God; for You
As yet but knock, breathe, shine, and seek to mend;
That I may rise and stand, o'erthrow me,'and bend
Your force to break, blow, burn, and make me new.
I, like an usurped town, to'another due,
Labor to'admit You, but O, to no end;
Reason, Your viceroy'in me, me should defend,
But is captived, and proves weak or untrue.
Yet dearly'I love You,'and would be loved fain,
But am betrothed unto Your enemy.
Divorce me,'untie or break that knot again;
Take me to You, imprison me, for I
Except You'enthrall me, never shall be free,
Nor ever chaste, except You ravish me.

As Soulless as My Heart
As Soulless as My Heart
By: Adam M. Snow
Twinkle are the stars above me,
But they fade at my sight.
I've walked this road of death before,
But the feelings even heavier upon me.
I fornicate my sins betrothed,
I've tarnished my convalescence;
I be without seeing, as I cursed my essence,
As I curse my heart to death.

True Marriage
Your reticence speaks that all
What you never reciprocate at all.
Though you are tied with someone else,
My love is fixed and never grows less.
Marriage is a bond and a beautiful cage,
Which makes us a prisoner and a slave.
But love is a bird, O' dear, of infinite sky,
Knows no bound and flies very high.
Nuptial cord fastens only bodies, and not hearts,
Where lie our souls, the men's immortal parts.
Our body is earthly, but the soul the heaven's due;
Body lies here, but the soul with heaven does glue.
Marriage unites bodies and love unites souls;
Death is bodies' divorce, but not that of souls.
If union of souls our true marriage be,
You must admit you have betrothed to me.
Deathless is my love ye need know,
And till eternity it will glow.

Love only a pass time
A man seeks a beauty queen
but compromises with one down.
A woman admires a prince
but accepts the one proposed.
dreams abort when they’re betrothed.

Lost lover
You got lost my dream lover
Your ship sank
In the depths of life
Among which you forgot
Where you have to swim
You crashed on the rocks
Which I poured out for you
From the last tears I shed for you
I am free now
In the isolation of this place
Expectant of betrothed
I go there now where he waits
This who is and will be
And to whom I'm whispering
And he is so close
That I can hear his voice
Even when he keeps silent,
The one who I feel
The one who I see
The one who is me
Because I am his

Learn The Basics
A worthless person is like a man or woman who does not provide for his or her family;
But, i am like a virgin who is now betrothed in the land of your muse of joy! !
So, learn the basics to do the right things always in this life;
For, a child grows from drinking his or her own mother's milk from the beginning on!
But, eating solid food after growing up is like, the muse of the colours of the rainbow in the land of sweet love.

Go back to the tainted lap, Leah
Go back to the tainted lap, Leah,
Whence you came,
Because to the sun of Ilion
You preferred yellow twilight.
Go, no one will touch you,
Let the incestuous daughter
Drop her head on her father's breast
In the dead of night.
But the fatal change
Must be fulfilled in you;
You shall be Leah -- not Helen --
Thus not betrothed,
For it is harder for a king's blood
To flow in the veins than another's --
No, you will love a Jew,
You will vanish in him, and
God help you.
