Chapter 1 - Boromir

Boromir

I hear its call, It haunts my sleep

"Take me now, I am yours to keep."

"Take me to Gondor." It whispers once more

These taunts in my mind I try to ignore.

But the pull of its power is clouding my mind

The choice I must make has my heart in a bind.

Do I submit and obey and take what's not mine ?

Will my soul become dark should I commit such a crime ?

But it promises power for the land of my kin

To save the White City and my people within.

My soul shall be forfeit, the price will be paid

As I follow young Frodo

My decision is made.
