Illicit love
For some , love that can't be is
enough reason for them to fall
apart but for others , it's a fight
they are willing to endure .
Their course of love never run
smooth since the taboo tries to
prevent them from being in a
relationship openly . Opposed
by the whole world due to
cultural ,societal and religious
norms because the condemned love trope consists of taboo in
society ,class difference ,
feuding families , religious
restrictions ,not forgetting the
age difference hence it would
be hard or even impossible for
them to be together.
As they
say ,' there is a charm about
the forbidden that makes it
unspeakably desirable ,'we
always long for the proscribed
things ,desire what is denied us
and crave what we can't have .Therefore , they put their trust
and faith into the love that is
prohibited and vow to do their
best to achieve that happily
ever after ending we all want
BUT the million dollar question
is will their illicit love be
enough reason for them to fall
apart or it's a fight they are
willing to endure no matter the
matter ?
With the fact that love
we can't have is the one that
last the longest , hurts the deepest and feels the strongest
in mind ,will the power of love
hold their relationship so it will
last till only death do them
apart or the deepest pain their
love brings will result in them
breaking up ? Will their banned
love be enough to test
everything that goes their way
? Why don't we find out the
answers to all the unanswered
questions in the illicit love

*Love is love, even if it is illicit
Like light remains light, even in
the darkness*
