here's a poem i wrote about eowyn a few years ago (it's meant to be her speaking after she's met aragorn, but before he's turned her down):


All My Life

All my life has been a battle
I was not allowed to fight,
Hidden away, no more than a nurse,
Never seeing the light.
But now this man, so proud, so strong,
Has opened a new door;
Has opened up a whole new world
And left me wanting more.

All my life I’ve been waiting for this,
Waiting for a chance to be free;
Waiting for the day I finally break out
And find the real me.
And now this man could be my chance
To escape from this cruel cage;
To stand and fight as I always should have
And win glory in this age.

All my life has been so cold,
So dark and full of fear.
It was hard to believe that anything
Could bring warm sunshine here.
But now this man, unknowingly,
Has thawed my frozen soul
And let me dare to believe
That there’s escape from this black hole.

For the fist time in my life
I feel like I’m in love;
All fear has gone and all I see
Is sunshine from above.
This man I love, so proud, so strong,
Has banished all my strife
And helped me to see there’s more to me
Than I ever believed in all my life.

what do you reckon?

Flawless!!!! And, since Eowyn is my fav. LOTR charrie....its really, really great!!!!!!!!!
