The change is inexorable now

Something was wrong,
Didn't you see?
The road was too long
And time seemed to flee.

It was the beginning
When she woke up.
The pale moon was shining,
And she's starting following her path.

When she's got to the edge of the forest,
All of sudden the wind got a voice.
But she keeps hurrying hasty for rest.
For once she's got not another choice.

The road was too long.
And the journey too lonely.
Even in the old song
That the elders sing solemnly.

Awoken before sun,
She's heading for the village.
But then she's got to run
Till she's nothing more than a misty image.

~~~

White fur, white mane,
The noble horse takes the wind for a race.
His fastness seems to be insane.
But what he's loved for is his faith.

Then a little, brown mare conquered her heart.
She wasn't noble, she wasn't fast.
But the elf wouldn't be from her apart.
And a life without her is just vast.

The day she's met a stern, tough guy.
Apart from family, apart from home
She's found a friend beneath the sky.
Now she's no longer alone.

The long dark road is surrounded by peril.
With the company she's now en route.
To the land where the stars are not visible.
To strange lands they're about to go.

In the end she's lost so much,
But though she's won even more.
Friends be there for life as such.
And foes are in exile afar.

The moon's a sharp, bright shape
In the dark nocturnal sky.
No wave's on the still, dark lake.
The road was too long, you see it's no lie.

Vielleicht zur Erklärung: Mit diesem Gedicht wollte ich noch einmal zurückblicken, mich zurückentsinnen an die Zeit, an der Nienna's Geschichte noch im Entstehen war. Und ich bin stolz auf mich, diesmal habe ich fünf Strophen aus dem Ärmel geschüttelt und noch die restlichen dazugeschrieben! Jede Strophe soll eine Station darstellen, die mir von der Geschichte der Waldläuferin in Erinnerung geblieben ist, die wirklich wichtig zu sein scheint. Mit diesem Werk will ich nicht spoilern für alle die, die Nienna's Geschichte noch nicht gelesen haben, deshalb sind die letzten Strophen ziemlich "schwammig" und sehr grob. (:
