Agape's Airs & Arias - NOT!  by Agape4Gondor 50 Review(s)

I am gone from their thoughts.
{I certainly hope not, Aragorn said the Tower of Guard will remember you til the end of days.}

My people fill Isildur’s Square
Surround a covered statue
My breath taken from me as my brother
Pulls the wrapping away.

I am not forgotten.
In that moment’s space I see
Love, honor, and forgiveness
And I am free to rest.

[First of ‘Isildur’s Square.’ cool name.]
Secondly, ohhhhh. Dear, Dear, Faramir.

If I ask why he is speaking poetry when he is dying.
I guess because he is shocked. Boromir of Gondor is shocked because he is hurt.

Who is the narrator, forgive me if it is obvious.

Precisely.

Though Denethor and Pippin didn’t, at least aloud. Sauron and the WitchKing probably didn’t. And the orcs in Osgiliath may have, but for an entirely different reason.
Rohan and the North Countries didn’t even know about it, or anybody in it, so they didn’t.

All that if we are taking ‘the world’ to mean M. E.

Nicely done.

Wew! That is actually Epic!

Riding down a Balrog’s back, indeed. Do they get burned? Where they singing this when the Fellowship set out?

My father dies [unless he guesses that, how does he know?]
My King survives

All Gondor cries
The King arrives!

[Wow.]
Really, the whole thing is pretty good.

Now this I can imagine…

All the things I’m missin’ like Theodred and Boromir [snort]


I think they must be highly inebriated. But if so, how did they sneak out?

Wow, Agape. This is awesome. I got chills reading it and tears filled my eyes.

Did Boromir really think Faramir would forget him? Did he think he would not be forgiven? No way would that have happened. The statue left me without words. What a beautiful idea.
