Grendel's Final Prayer

by Chalyn the redneck bitch

I don't own Beowulf, Grendel, or his mother. Lord of Hell owns me. Grendel prays to the Lord of Hell on his way from Herot on that final night. Oneshot. Read and Review.

Hi it's me. This is my first Beowulf fanfic…I usually do Harry Potter.

Lord of Hell, hear my prayer
My final prayer
For I know it is my time

Let not that Geat win over my mother
My lovely mother
Whose home I now seek

Let him not slay her
Oh Father of Hell
Not as he has to me

Here is the cave
Where I once lived
And now I die

I fall in the water
Waking my mother
Let her not be enraged.

Now here she comes
From within liquid depths
Dark watery tombs

Oh Lord of Hell, staunch my blood
So I may tell her what happened
At Herot

Yet you do not
You limit my time
And I cannot find my voice

The prince of Geats
Who did this to me
Beowulf, defender of Herot

Lord of Hell, you have heard my prayer
My final prayer
For I know it is my time

And now I hear my mother's voice
Humming sweet lullabies
As I lie here and die

Hope you enjoyed it! Review please!
