5. Family
Additional Disclaimer: This poem was adapted from "Friendship" by Elanor Garton. If anyone would like to see the original please email me. And yes, I did have permission to slaughter it.
Written from the point of view of Aragorn, about Arwen.
Maybe love is a good thing
I wouldn't know;
I've never known it
But maybe that's a good thing.
Love can
Hurt
too, right?
Love can cause you
pain
the same way as
families
and hurt can.
What would happen if you fell
in love
with your sister?
What would that do you do?
How would all the pain that
affects
your sister hurt you?
But then she would be hurting
you
and you couldn't love her, right?
And what if you were caught;
surrounded,
trapped?
The only way out is through
her.
But she cannot kill you.
She cannot harm you.
For that will
Harm
her more.
What is family but
love?
What is family?
What is love?
