Aragorn & Arwen from Lord of the Rings Trilogy
Do you recall how we first met, a dream
You thought as you saw me wrapped in silver
blue robe, radiant crystal by misty stream
Of true love, You made me a believer
Do you remember our first kiss under stars
Filled with trees laden of gold leaves & heady blooms
After a long parting, each touch a fever
We sought for peace & love to reign, not doom
Bleak is the land gripped by wicked shadows
Festering darkness, trees & sea birds die
Hammering blows, meadows turn to gallows
Fight for your crown, your blade is birthed by fire
Open your eyes & see my love dawning
Eternal as sky, bright as your promised ring
“A single dream is more powerful than a thousand realities.” J.R.R. Tolkien
