Souls already lost

Read Souls already lost

Only two remain now, the oldest and then I
What will we leave behind but blood and death?
Had Valar still had mercy
We would have fallen here at last
To rest by Ambarussas’ side
In sea or earth or dust.

In Doriath’s forests we lost the last of light
My brother took that harder far than I
The scared and shivering children
Their knives held tightly in their hands
Abruptly offers hope, redemption
To souls already lost.
