Ashes -- version 2

[rabidsamfan]

I 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?

Thanks. I think re-writing helped it actually, even though I didn't end up changing what got critiqued, LoL!

And I gave up and just made myself a new icon to "illustrate" it now.

I love that icon, it really illustrates it well.
