Ashes -- version 2
Apr. 12th, 2004 10:38 pmI had to save you.
I hear your voice, and you are glad that the task is done, but I cannot rejoice. I’ve nothing left inside.
I didn’t let you fall.
But there’s nowhere left to go, except a few more feet up this bit of rock. That won’t be enough. The mountain is destroying itself, same as it destroyed the Ring.
I couldn’t let you fall.
I called to you. You reached for me. I had to pull you up. And still we are dying, and my head aches and my heart is numb.
Why can’t I save you?
