My Script-- Tolkien

I have cut a Simril--
From the darkened grounds of Terra I made it...
Chipping away at the coal-block,
Picking till red my nails became,
With hammer and chisel striking.
And if my aim was true 
A light would shine through, a silvery hue--
Iluvatar's Beauty...

Many to it have I shown--
I even presented it to my Lords and Nobles
Way back when,
But never did I see it again
