Excellence Award in the 'Write Here Write Now 2017' competition

Indelible markings could not possibly contain,
The unconditional love forged between the two,
A treaty bound in hearts anew,
And one must not travel across yonder fields,
The tale of romance must be told to one that wields,
A green-eyed monster caged in their hearts,
For love is limited by the near and far,
It is love forged in the midst of bloody terror,
Perhaps ties held refuge but never,
Has one pondered over a love story like the very one,
Perhaps green-eyed monsters have been reduced to none,
Alas, to worry is to pass in despair,
As from my very feet to my very hair,
I will show you the love story,
As the green-eyed monster,
Will pass in despair.
