📚 The Pretty Words and Poetry Dump 📚

"Pity? It's a pity that stayed Bilbo's hand. Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends. My heart tells me that Gollum has some part to play in it, for good or evil, before this is over. The pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many."

~Gandalf
 
Scars (in homage of this week’s Chaos theme)

Scars are the memories of pain
The reminders of struggle
They tell of tales of sorrow and of misery
Wrapped in a life beaten and worn

Scars are the symbols of growth
Of healing and recovery
speaking to the resilience of their bearer
The creation of new life

Scars are the story of who we are
Both seen and invisible
Telling the tale of a life lived
Showing signs of a life taken

But life means scars, and scars bear witness to life.
