Eternal Spirits
Eternal spirits feel no pain
Eternal spirits feel no fear
Eternal spirit know no darkness
Eternal spirit do not die
I feel the pain of his burning whip
I feel the fear of his dreaded shadow
I know the darkness that closes upon me
I sense death is on my heels, yet
I am an eternal spirit
Eternal spirit I was once
Eternal spirit I am still
Eternal spirit I will ever be
Many burdens I took on
To serve the greater good
Many oaths I took on
To serve men and elves
Some I will discharge today
When I take you on, brother
We are alike, you and I
We were both spirits immortal
You were corrupted
Bound to the substance of Arda
I bound myself by my free will
Come than brother let us free ourselves
And become what we once were
Eternal spirits, spirits divine
Author's notes: While going through my LOTR stuff I found this. I have no idea when I wrote this first and certainly don't recall why I didn't publish it. But here it is now. Enjoy.
Plug for my site: Tired of being confused about what comes from Tolkien and what comes from fans? Visit Canon? NO! It's Fanon! at http/tinni.s43. and all will be answered!
