A poem from Celedae

YAY! I get to be included too. Alrighty. Well, I was sort of MIA when I wrote this, so these should all be new to you, but these were written in Novemeber. November 8th of the thrid age...uh...2007, to be exact

(I have many different copies of the same poem. I am not as good at poetry as some of the others...but here)

This poem is dedicated to a human friend of mine, who fell in love with an elf...

He saw her in a crowded place
The angel with the eyes that wouldn't see
Whose heart was filled with the love
Of another, who held the key

He pushed his way through to her
Despite his tiny chance
He tried to get her to see him and
Snap out of her deadly trace

However she refused him
Yet, he tried to save her from the pain
She let him in to be her friend
But his efforts were in vain.

A warrior, he went off to battle
And in a fight he died
And the women he so deeply loved
So proud, never even cried

That was the first one...here's the longer version

He met her on a crowded day
A girl with love written on her face
She seemed so awkward standing there
So Lost and out of place

Yet she was also lost in thought
Dreaming she were far away
With someone who she loved a lot
And wondering how he was today

He saw the silver heart and he knew
His chance with her was slim
‘Cause her hear was set on someone else
And he knew it wasn’t him

Still he called upon her
Everyday since they met
Just so he could hear her voice
And share each other’s secrets

The summer finally came to them
And he could finally see her
Despite the fact she had a boyfriend
They made plans to go out to dinner

Right be fore he left again
He brought flowers to her door
He woke her up from her sleep
But she let him in, like the day before

The clock suddenly betrayed him
And soon he had to go
He took her hand and stood to leave
When an idea [the moment] struck him with a blow

They walked together to the door
And as they were saying their goodbyes
He bent down and kissed her
Shock clearly in her eyes

He felt her tense with a little bit of fear
And he worried he’d gone too far
When she tiptoed up to kiss him back
Before the impulse left a scar

Suddenly soon after
She stopped answering her phone
And if he got a hold of her,
She always had to go

Weeks later he got ahold of her
But when she picked up the phone
Her voice was cold and quiet
And she sounded so alone

She told him she had let him go
And he’d just walked away
The love that she had cherished so
Had ended to wrong way

After that she’d stopped communicating
And started pushing everyone away
She was losing all her friends
But he decided he would stay

Finally her broken heart woke up
Although she felt so cold
A small sliver of light helped her live
And turn the pain to gold

And yet he stayed there for her
Even though he got mad
Because she wouldn’t talk to him
But he knew that she’d been sad

Because he sat and waited for her
To just move on from a broken heart
She knew at least one friend would listen
No matter how far apart

Even though her heart was scarred
And sometimes she felt the pain
She hoped that this friend of hers
Would help her trust again
