I Need You. (Very short, vague, blah, Labyrinth ramblings)
I just finished watching Labyrinth - one of the most magical and imaginative movies every made - and this came to mind. It's rubbish and very raw, but I had to get it out of my head before I could move on to do anything else. Since this is the first time I've written anything in months, I'm actually glad that I was forced to sit and write. A storyline or sequels is probably never going to happen. I'm terrible at getting ideas for stories that end up never going anywhere. I need help with that. Seriously - it drives me insane.
So, here it is. It's really not good, but I'm happy because it's out of my head. If anyone knows of any really good ff for this movie, please send the recs my way! It seems the only thing I've found is smut. :/ That just annoys the crap out of me.
I changed the world for you, turned it upside down.
I altered my appearance to make myself look older - I did it to intimidate you, to intrigue you. To satisfy that human complex that you so desperately craved in the absence of a father figure.
I became your fondest daydreams and your darkest fantasies.
I stopped time and altered it. I gave you the desires of you heart. I gave you the moon and the stars and the seas and every winged creature and every cloven hoof.
And still you rejected me.
Now I am nothing
I'm cold, I'm burning up
My eyes cry tears that are dry.
I hurry to wait.
I'm completely full of nothing.
I recount those moments that you were so close, those few blissful moments when I held you in my arms and you looked up at me with pleading wide eyes.
Those moments have now become my torment.
I held no power over you mind, body, heart...
And yet you keep mine so completely in your grasp; you hold everything that I am in your hands and yet you've forgotten.
You've forgotten me.
So I wait, in the blackest of nights and in the brightest of mornings, waiting with bated breath to hear the words that will set me free.
You said them once, long ago, but not to me. Never to me.
"I need you."
Say the words, Sarah. End both of our anguish.
I need you.
(Please forgive the novice - and the liberties she has taken.)
I feel better now.
