Chapter VIII
Jareth
You are
The voice that's on the wind
The tears behind the rain
So far,
Yet near you seem to be
I see your face again
So close,
You are to me right now,
I feel your warm embrace
And those
Who say you don't exist
Like me, can't see your proud face
Your gaze
Like lightning flashes through,
And tears my very soul
Hands graze
My cheek with sudden care,
Your eyes like burning coals
Your love
Like warm blood runs through me,
Washing my fears away
Above
Us everything is still,
Just darkness fading into day…
You sigh,
How soon this dream must end!
Magic forever doesn't last…
And I
Feel myself coming back,
From my dream waking fast…
I wish
You didn't have to go…
But then, it's me who leaves!
Yet know –
I'll always wait for you
As daylight brightens into eve.

This particular poem is a bit unusual for me, as it is quite.. ahem... sensual.and the point of view might be a bit confusing.i don't usually write in this way, but i suppose unusual is ok. right? RIGHT?
i hear him laughing in the silence of my thoughts
he walks without a trace of hesitation
