A crystal orb

Shone through her eyes

Like the moon above

In the velvet skies

She blinked away

The falling tears;

She said the words

That ruined her years

He fell from Heaven

He screamed her name

Then she awoke

Heart seared with pain

And when she woke

She hit her knees,

"Goblin King, Goblin King,

Take me please."

He came to her

In shape of an owl

He sat on her shoulder

She gave him a scowl

"I love you, you prat,"

She said to the bird,

"Your eyes are my refuge,

Your arms are my sword."

He nibbled her ear

And he flew out of sight

She wrapped herself up

In a blanket of spite

Sarah's pride failed her

As she enveloped in pain

She looked out the window

As it started to rain

And there, by her side,

Was the great Goblin King

He picked up the girl

And held her to him

"Oh, darling," said Jareth,

"Oh my, you look dead."

He laid her against him

Atop the big bed.

She held herself to him

As she quietly sobbed

He silently pet her

And his ego, she'd robbed

She knew he was King,

And she knew he was great

But right at that moment

He was her mate

She kissed his chest,

He kissed her head

And slowly but surely,

They both were undead.
