Hey all...this one's for my fellow Neil Gaiman fans.Hope that Mr Gaiman won't mind the liberty I've taken with his work.Anyway,this one's missing a stanza cuz I haven't read about Destruction yet.I'll probably finish it up soon,though...

Despair

You’re just bloodied bricks
In the eternal wall of time
Just candles , guttering, dying
In the howling wind
And maybe truth’s staring
At you from behind a mirror
But you’re too blind to see

Destiny

You’re blind stargazers
Waiting for the lights to go out
Lost Children
Of Eternal Destiny, wandering
In a garden of wonders
Wondering, when this the world
Is put to sleep, will we still dream?

Dream

The domain of
The lord of shadows and stardust
Sleepwalker, World-shaper
Silence fading in the moonlight
The sliver of reality
Between sleep and wakefulness
Between Life and Death

Death

My whisper’s the perfume
Of black roses and a dying swan
Embracing, comforting, carrying
You home to yourself
When the world ends for you
I’ll know your heart’s desire

Desire

I’m the careless touch
Of the lover in your dreams
Hinting enticing caressing
Maddening lust for my
Scarlet rapture. Gasp for me
In a fit of fevered

Delirium

I’m the butterfly nightmare
Shadow-lit nonsensical vision
Of fevered, drunken sanity
Laced with an afterthought
Of vertigo and a subtle hint
Of crazed

Destruction
