Author Note: I wrote this poem for a friend on a LOTRs site and it is my first attempt at a rather darksome poem. Enjoy its creepiness!


One Ring

I take a breath

My first to breathe

I produce death

My destiny

My master sings

I feel the joy

Of many things

That I destroy

I feel the power

Flood through my band

This is my hour

When on this hand.

The bond is cut

My reign is pruned

I wait and watch but

hear no tune.

I must await

The master's call

I feel my fate

I feel a draw.

If I can fin'lly

Be returned

To my own kind

I shall not burn

With un-told lust

And evil schemes

Here in the dust

Amid the leaves.

An echoed sound

I take a breath

I have been found

I exhale...death.
