She wanders around in the lonely night

Always dressed in black

She is human

Cursed with elfish immortality

Blessed with the love of Elbereth

She is more graceful than the flowing waters

Quicker than the silent wind

She is the one who haunts my dreams

I wake up, sweating and scared to death

My heartbeat faster than a racing horse

Could it be?

Was she standing over me?

I wink back under the blankets

Forgetting about her

Comfort once again surrounds me

And I am back in hellish sleep

There she walks again, and again

Out of breath, sword in hand

Tears stream down the ghostly face

And I see. I know the pain
