Alas! by SilverDeath
thou art the son of kings.
The thought of your smile
bears my heart up on wings.
I wish I could stand near
and whisper my devotion
in your keen elven-ear
Yet you know me not,
and I cannot go to thee.
My call goes unanswered
as you stand ‘neath a tree.
Alas! I do not have a claim
I and other maidens
who see thee and weep.
Our hearts desire in vain.
For, with our hearts in hand
you walk through a world
in which we cannot stand.
But, Legolas of Mirkwood
fair elf with high brow,
you know not of our love,
yet a great following hast thou!

Oh boy, this is so true… A little bit too true, I wish it was just a little bit less true. But anyway, it’s a nice piece of work.
Most deffently how most Legolas fans feel, I speak as one Myself.
This is one of the best Legolas poems I’ve read, and trust Me, I’ve read a lot of them!
Alas, all of our (Legolas fans) love for Legolas is in vain….Good poem!
Oh my! Are you sure you aren’t a fan? My goodness that is SO true! Well at least for me… so sad. *tear falls from eye* Anyhoo, I still have Orli.
Congrats on a great poem! Love it!

This is a really good poem. It is EXACTLY how I feel about Legolas. I wish with all my heart he was real.
That’s it Exactly! That’s exactly how I feel.
Sad and sweet!
Very true. 🙂
