A/N: Another poem from Frodo's POV, as he's leaving to sail West. It could be either book verse or movie verse, but the movie might be easier to picture.
I'm so happy I finally got this onto my computer. It was in my notebook for a few weeks and I finally decided I should put it up.
Also, I really am going to write another chapter of Balrog Slayer, believe it or not. I'm sorry it's taking so long, I kind of am getting caught up in school.
Disclaimer: Obviously I own nothing.
Healing Wounds
I don't want to turn back
I don't want them to see the tears in my eyes
I need them to be strong for my sake.
I cannot stay on this earth
Where I have received so many hurts.
I need somewhere to heal
Away from this turmoil I feel.
Can I not go back to what I was?
What could be the cause
Of the pain that leaves me awake
On those dreamless nights,
And I cannot shake
The feeling that on the horizon there is a light
A light that can warm my weary soul
From the freezing cold
That I can feel inside.
I know that It was destroyed,
But It forever marred my spirit,
I cannot go back to the way I lived,
I know that now,
But does that mean I have to understand?
Please review!!
