some Lord of the Rings

It's all wrong
By rights we shouldn't even be here
But we are
It's like in the great stories
The ones that really mattered
Full of darkness and danger they were
And sometimes you didn't want to know the end
Because how could the end be happy
How could the world go back to the way it was
But in the end it's only a passing thing
Even darkness must pass
And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer
Those where the stories that stayed with you
Even if you were too small to understand why
I think I do understand
The folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn't
They kept going
Because they were holding onto something
That there's some good in this world
And it's worth fighting for
