My beard of flame my heart on fire!
I create the armor of protection now.
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
We enter the battle - no fear of death!
My eyes were as wide as the universe.
Daimon of
the ancient world
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
into my heart today.
It was the shadows
that brought us together
and the light of day
that kept us apart.
We felt each other's heart beat
in this directionless void ...
You were all I had,
my fellowship.
I was your shield
of secret fire
upon the breaking shore
beneath your feet.
NOW FLY YOU FOOLS!
Hear me now - I fought the flame
In the mines, the tombs,
I have returned to save the world.
I have a wisdom that never sleeps.
I have a heart forever true.
I pledge my loyalty to you all.
I am the protector of Middle Earth.
It is dark --- but I am strong.
I am your simple flame.
I am the light that endures
when angels have perished.
*
I embraced the shadow
in that moment
and somehow
we got all mixed up.
Balrog, you are inside my heart.
Your fiery tail caught my breath.
We fell into the depths together.
But, I cry out -------------------
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
I will protect you all forever.
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
Balrog from the ancient world,
we are the one
night long day long struggle!
You are me ...
and I am you.
*
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
I will protect myself against myself.
My flame is managed not engulfed.
Your tail finally becomes my tongue.
My eyes in shadows,
my heart goes numb,
my blood runs cold,
I am burnt to cinders.
I am young
yet
I am strong.
The stars are raging in my blood.
I entered timelessness
I had ended before I could begin.
All has changed
but I returned to
change the world
for I was good
as well.
*
I love you all but
I was swept away
and you were too.
*
Balrog of the ancient world!
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
But indeed you did,
As I crossed you crossed
Our paths were intimate.
We were affected.
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
But indeed you did
You were a Balrog from Morgoth.
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
But I have brought you home
inside myself.
I held the darkness in my heart.
You are my Balrog, my companion
my lifelong familiar, lover.
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
I knew the mines of Moria.
I knew the darkness there.
I put my trust in Frodo
and my faith in god alone.
I was your loyal shield,
your light too bright for pain
when all other lights go dim.
You were my immortality.
A true fellowship of being.
You were my world under threat.
We would perish at any moment.
I had barely begun to live.
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
You, who I love, how I love.
Make me your shield forever!
Make me - your little Balrog!
Make me the protector of the world,
as I protect the world from my fate.
*
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
I shout down the Balrog in the mines of Moria!
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
I shout down the Balrog inside my own heart!
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
from love into fear in the world today.
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
to destroy all that is as good as god.
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
Creature from the ancient world
... because now I shield us both!
YOU WILL NOT CROSS!
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
I save myself from the world.
I save the world from myself.
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
Because all is good in the world today.
