"I'm tired of melancholy.
It's so boring to stay in silence, 
Staying idle would be a folly.
Would you tell me of Helcaraxë  ?
Can you tell me if that was scary,
Is it true that your tears were freezing?
Tell me  things that you are aware
Of   that  way of the dead and living. 
You survived and you started over, 
Even though that path was ghastly. 
Tell me  me please! Few could  tell this story, 
Would you tell me of  Helcaraxë  ?
Times change   quickly,  I tell you lastly. 
As we dwell in this land remote,
Would you tell me of   Helcaraxë ?"
"No. Don't even ask. I won't"

I'm really, really glad to hear that. :) English isn't my native language either, and I can't stress enough how much writing fanfiction helped me become comfortable using it. And poetry is even more intricate than prose, so here's mad respect for posting your poems! 

(And I'm still looking forward to more from you. :))
