A poem about Frodo and Sam's bitter parting at the grey Havens. NO SLASH! Please read and review.
The Havens and the Sea
You walk with grim purpose in each step
Determined not to stray
As we journey to the Havens
To see off those going away
The passengers board:
Lord Elrond stern
The Lady fair
Mithrandir strong
Old Bilbo small
I wish them farewell
Then you turn to me
With a set face
And I know you mean to go
Across the sea and leave no trace
Of the friendship that we shared
And now we say this sad goodbye
And I feel something in me die
An empty hole
Where once was you
I think of all we went through
All the horrors that we faced
But worse than any of those terrors
Is never seeing you again
For we faced those things together
And in this, I am alone
I will follow if I can
I'll return to your side
I will board a grey ship
And into the West I too will glide
I still stare at the horizon
Though the ship is long gone now
Wishing for one last glimpse
But the sea has naught to show
Our Fellowship has ended
At the edge of the sea
And I curse the ship that took you
So far away from me
