He knew his life was fading, on that fateful day.
He said his goodbye's to his children, and then he went to lay.
Yet only one was still beside him, as she had been all those years.
Though now instead of smiles, all there were mournful tears.
"Do not cry, my Evenstar, you knew this day was near."
Indeed she knew- and here it was, her very biggest fear.
"Oh my love...one more day, I cannot stand to part."
He coughed once more, with such a struggle, it nearly broke her heart.
He tried to soothe their parting, and there was no need to tell, that the
final word to his beloved was that of farewell.
She cried out his name, once...twice, but he was no longer there.
And all that was heard throughout the streets were the sobs that she cried
for her Isildur's heir.
Her immortality was waning, all her beauty no longer there.
They all tried to comfort her, but she simply did not care.
All she wanted was her husband, to stare into those eyes once more.
Have that stormy, crystaline gaze pierce into her very core.
She had no more tears to cry, no more people she had to face.
And so she decided upon Lorien, to be her final resting place.
However long it took to get there, she had not a single clue.
No idea how long it had been until the withered tree tops came into view.
She walked through the forest silently, until that bridge came into sight.
The bridge that they had pledged themselves, on that starry night.
That is where she layed down to take her very final breath.
And within moments, as the sun went down, Arwen discovered life after
death...
