A/N:
Thanks to Arrie77, who has taken the time to review! love ya lots!
This poem written in anticipation of Sarah's cry of despair, before the mirror scene (if you read Burning Bridges). Maybe as a sort of consolation to Jareth. Though a small one at that. Again, seeing things from his point of view. :)

Chapter V:
Downside up
You think you're lost
Now she has gone -
There's no more strength
To carry on
Deceiving lies
And dying heart
Unanswered love
So far apart
Forgive yourself
Her lonely pain
Without you
She'll go insane
Without you
Without your love
She wont know what
She's dreaming of
You know she's left
And you can't be
Within her heart
'Till she can see
That you are all
Life's meaning holds –
She'll call to you
To face the cold.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the cold of...what, you may ask? her loneliness, a life lived without magic, the cold of understanding that she destroyed her own happiness. comments welcome!
