WHAT GETS ME THROUGH

Walking silently through barren lands full of waste

Where wind pierces flesh and the air has a bitter taste

I just want to lay down and curl up into a ball

I am so tired, so weary and so sick of it all

Giving up in defeat seems like the best thing to do

But there is a special person who helps me get through

On those dark, dreary days full of doom and despair

When the pain and the hurt seem too much to bear

You stand by my side and take hold of my hand

Though I scream and I cry, you continue to stand

Others would get angry or give up and run away

Instead you promise me that by my side you will stay

When water's running out or there's not much lembas bread

You always put me first and make sure that I am fed

If I am feeling sleepy and I need to rest my head

You always let me have a nap though you want to go to bed

You put my need's first but I never hear you complain

I only hope that I am worth all this trouble and this pain

When my dreams are dark and frightful and chill me to the bone

You are always by my side and never leave me all alone

You hold my hand in yours until the nightmares pass and fade

And when I wake up you assure me that I need not be afraid

Though I have seen you scared and I have seen you shake

You have kept it all to yourself purely for my sake

When I need someone to talk to or am feeling rather depressed

You tell me to stop worrying and to stop being so stressed

My heart is comforted when you point to the stars in the sky

When you tell me that some things in Middle-Earth can never die

No matter how hard life gets, you always know what to say

And sometimes you even help me chase the shadows away

I do not know if you realise how much you mean to me

Or if you realise that I'll be grateful to you for eternity

Your patience, your strength and above all your loyalty

I don't think you'll ever know how much they mean to me

When tears fall, when anger rages, when darkness has no end

I know that I'll be helped through them all by my special friend

AUTHOR'S NOTE: So what did everyone think? I really love writing LOTR poetry and this time Frodo and Sam's beautiful friendship inspired me. Send me a review and tell me what you think, whether you liked it or loathed it. Greatly appreciated. Cheers :)
