In darkest night she cries for her release.
She speaks her words and from shadows they steal.
Too late she rues her rash request for peace,
And in her fear she begs a dangerous deal
From one who watched her long through crystal eyes
And, smiling, discounts her moving appeal.
She rejects his shallow comforts, defies
Him in her apprehension and her ire.
With an eerie laugh, he at last, complies,
To let her try her prize to reacquire
Should she win the game that he require
Down cobbled paths she runs against the clock
Determined to win back her treasured prize.
He watches from above in growing shock
As she triumphs over each new surprise.
He's enchanted with her youthful fire.
Amazed by her resolve, which never dies.
In fevered dreams he kindles desire
But again she is able to confound
His goals and meet him in the tallest spire.
Her dire words raze his fortress to the ground.
She and her brother are home safe and sound.
Now he watches her through his crystal eyes
Covertly observing her through her days
Still coveting his unharvested prize
Alone, high above the neglected maze
In a fragile fortress he built anew
He broods, and waits with a distracted gaze.
The chance will come to yet again pursue
The prize that once evaded his control
Then his prize he will capture and subdue
and although it was the child he stole
the child hadn't ever been his goal
She speaks her words and from shadows they steal.

"Sarah, I will not takes you back to the Underground! Not no way! Not no how!" Hoggle yelled shaking a finger at the now thirty-year-old Sarah Williams; why had he promised her one birthday wish of her choosing?
"Oh come on Hoggle! It's my birthday!"
"Do you have a death wish for your birthday? Because this is a good way of gettin' 'round to it if ya do!"
"He can't still be mad at me
I mean, it's been fifteen years! I won, he lost
simple as that. I can't imagine that he would still be a sore loser after all these years."
Hoggle glared at the brunette before him. He'd been visiting her weekly since

"Blow out candles Sarah!" Toby shouted from his booster seat.
Sarah smiled and did as requested, however one candle stayed lit persistently. She frowned at it before directing a puff of air in its direction. Toby clapped and Karen and her father smiled at her. "Congrats kiddo! How's it feel to be eighteen?" her father asked wrapping an arm around her shoulders.
"Not much different than seventeen truth be told," Sarah smiled back.
He laughed, "Yeah, they all start to feel like that the older you get."
Karen cut the cake and Sarah dished out large scoops of ice cream to accompany the

You just know...
You know you're too much of a Labyrinth fan when...
1. Whenever you see a white owl, you run after it, screaming "JARETH!!" at the top of your lungs.
2. You call the school janitor 'Hoggle'.
3. Whenever something doesn't go your way, you cry out dramatically, "It's not fair!"
4. You've made an OC for Labyrinth and paired them with someone (in all likelyhood, Jareth :D )
5. You've drawn yourself as a Labyrinth style goblin.
6. When you get upset or mad, you stare at the offending object/person and say "I wish the Goblin King would take you away. Right now!"
7. You blame goblins on things going missing or getting broken around your house

A drabble of a poem I did a while back -- an extra credit assignment for an English class, to write a poem in the preferred meter of the instructor. I decided to have a bit of fun with it and make mine Labyrinth fan poetry.
