Alias Poem: A Way to Go On

the sun bows to the world
as it dips beneath the horizon
each breath echos with sadness
And pain
And darkness
And fear
in this one day, I become
a lost child in a darker and scarier world
I'm an orphan
or I might as well be.
never again, will innocence and trust
block my view of reality.
everything I know, everything I knew
is in ashes
And unlike the phoenix, it cannot
rise again
and be as good as new
but, I will rise
I will rise and eventually find myself again.
I will find a way to go on.

Truth, Justice, Mercy, Love, Hope and Grace
All came to bear in Middle Earth's fate
The sun was sinking, the world was a mess
And Gollum, the ring he wanted as he confessed

They raced to the mountain as fast as they could
But Frodo was weak and could not walk as he should
Sam carried him the rest of the way
This is the truth of what happened that day

And into the fire, and into the flame
They made their way without any shame.
And Gollum finally, the ring did he steal
And fell into the fire letting out one final squeal.

Our heroes were left in the worst of the storm
But the eagles did come, true to their form
And took them away, wafting in the air
And carried them to Gondor, with the greatest of care

Once back in the now safe revered town
And the final battle was dying on down
The hobbits they took a much earned rest
Until for the wedding they did look their best

And all bowed down to the four that day
Never again will we see such destruction did they pray
And return to the Shire the hobbits did go
With Merry and company in tow.

And Frodo wanted to but not remain
Though he'd saved Middle Earth, he still felt great pain
And away to the place of the Havens of Gray
He went to live in peace he may.

Friendship

The darkness has fallen, the sun has set
Evening has come to Middle Earth
Its fate is hanging in the balance
Will the ring bearer overcome what so many have not?

Will the darkness end? Will justice triumph?
Will the light appear once again to crush the dark?
Or will all the light be sucked out of all the land?
And all fall down under Sauron's evil hand?

True friendship always will succeed
A true friend is there when one is in need
Two small hobbits triumphing over the darkness
That has encompassed the entire of Middle Earth

A shining beacon in the middle of the deathly night
An angel by your side till the end of the world
A warm comforting fire when all else is gone
The other half of your own soul, is a friend
