Sam
You were my gardener
My companion
The one who heard about my troubles
Your fiery red hair there
Your broken speech and utmost perfection
Made you, in my eyes,
My love, Sam
You never lied to me
Told me of Gollum's betrayal
Reminded me of the Shire when
I needed it most
My burdens are heavy
Things you can't carry
Both then, and now,
You lift me up in their steads
And it is for you
My dear Sam
That I won't let go
That my troubles go up in flames
And I survive
Here, at the end of all things
And as I get upon the ship
Into the west
You remain with your dear Rosie
Finish our story, my Sam
My companion
Remember what I said:
Frodo couldn't have got far
Without Sam
