PROMPT: Thirteen Tales of Love & Revenge !!!!

i made yet another contest
prompt: Thirteen Tales of Love & Revenge.

This is the title of the The Pierces CD (which is amazing by the way)
But anyway, I want you to to weave me a tale of love or revenge....or both.

FOLLOW MY RULES PLEASE

I want to see QUALITY writes. Not boring standard writes on these subjects.

I'm looking for poems that are dark, haunting, avant-garde, sweet, ethereal, tim burton-esk, seductive (without erotica!!), etc, etc!!!

rules:
1.) no gore, erotica, suicide...
2.) MAXIMUM of 26 lines... why 26? because its 13 times 2

and it will help you remember the text line limit. don't even think about trying to squeeze in that 27th line

I am serious about the line limit though.

I want your poem to be so amazing that I can't stop thinking about it and gives me chills when I read it.

*trophies may be added later, depending on #/quality of entries
**I will comment on ALL entries

k... Onward!

Denying the ripples of the heart

What should I call this royal siren clenching my heart?
The veil that has been shed upon my desire.
