Let It Fall

by orientalbunny

Just a little poem with Jareth in mind.

I was inspired by Cyber Keiko's poem, "Shards of My Love" and wanted to write a poem too from Jareth's perspective. I hope people like it. Take care. orientalbunny

Let It Fall

What painful gift humanity brings

Their voices echo, sad, lilting in its loneliness

I let it fall, breaking, shattering

the orb of their belief, the endless circle of continuity

That living begets pain, and that dreams are nonsense

How black begets white, to turn black again

So let it fall, let them shatter

My boots will grind the cycle into dust

And my footprint will fade with the wind

And hopefully, their voices are also lifted

Beyond form, past self doubt

Flying the heavens

Toward Freedom.
