Literature Text

He was the fire
Devouring flame
Wine until bottom
And pain of fame

He was my father
His anger like flood
We sealed our Oath
In fire and blood

The flame extinguished
By Oath we're still bound
Through tears and pain
No rest to be found

The blood on my hands
And my hand in chains
What was it for
When nothing remains?

The Light we sought, burns
So close, yet so far
We are not worthy
To touch a star

Burning flame, take me
And clean the stain
Take the cursed Jewel
And end my pain!

In fire it started
In fire it ends
Just like my father
The fire in my veins
Maedhros, son of Fëanor

She wanted a poem about Maedhros in love, and if not in love, then just about him... I'm sorry Nelyo, I'm not good in writing romances. So here is a tragical poem about Maedhros...

Tak ten je skvělý. Sám jsem se snažil přesně něco s takovouhle strukturou a vyzněním seskládat, ale nikam jsem se nedostal. S dovolením bych si ji půjčil jako písňový text, pokud se mi k tomu podaří seskládat hudba, která by toho byla hodna.
