Sleep Well My Love

Author's note; Hi folks ! This little poem is from Arwen's point of view. I hope in some way it expresses the sadness & bitterness she may have experienced at the passing of her beloved Aragorn, until she could be with him again once more. Please let me know what you think - thanks.



Sleep Well My Love.


Sleep well my love, your time has come
Lay thee down with the setting sun.

So short a time it seems we had
For these precious years, should I be glad ?
To be your love, to be your wife
Blessing ? nay curse, this mortal life.

Sleep well my love, you time has ended
My heart lies broken and shant be mended.

To your fore-fathers go, to the Kings of old
In legend , in song shall your story be told.
Your city is mourning, your people grieve
No comfort here now, I too must leave.

Sleep well my love, tears of joy now flow
From the Golden Wood to your arms I go.
