In the velvet sky I have seen my love,
And there she held two crystals,
One was filled with dreams and visions,
But the other nightmares.
I reached out for the fairest of the two,
But when my hands grasped the delicate orb it shattered to dust,
My love placed that dust within my heart,
And in my hand set the gloomy sphere,
I felt my body fill with fear,
And felt it reach my core,
In my eyes she disappeared,
And became lost from in dreams,
Only to become an idea.
And now with my visions mislaid,
And my fantasies destroyed,
I find myself lead astray,
Forlorn in this empty space,
And every moment of this pointless life I can feel that shattered dream,
And how my love betrayed me,
If only I had been strong,
If only I knew how to wish these nightmares away,
But as I live this day,
Such words deny me,
So I shall remain,
Dejected and forsaken,
Lost within her dream,
My nightmare.
Author notes
I wrote this for a Labyrinth fic I'm doing. Just thought I would post it here.

such pain and sorrow...
i'm really not sure what to say. perhaps that words aren't needed as much as a hug would
.
perhaps the being lead astray is only to be lead away from the pain...i don't know.
all i know is that whatever inspired you to write this is not altogether bad...in sense that it made this poem so great.
love rich

Thanx for the hug Love. But don't worry as this poem has nothing to do with the way I am feeling. As to what inspired me to write this, yeah its not bad at all since it was David Bowie.
I'm writing a Labyrinth Fanfic for some friends and this is in the first chapter, it sort of tells what happens later on in the story.
But I'm glad you could feel the emotion in it, I was depressed when I wrote it, was going through an attack actually. Guess thats why is is much darker then I had planned.
So Huggles to you too
Be well Love,

wow-so mysterious and mystical -I love it!
But as I live this day,
Such words deny me,
So I shall remain,
Dejected and forsaken,
Lost within her dream,
My nightmare.
