PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I sit here calmed

High in my castle tower

The sun beating upon me

Causing a sudden chill to cower



Long have I imagined

Another being, another time

When I could walk you to the edge

Of misty moors sublime



To a ruined castle we would stumble

And in the land of make-believe

You would make me realize

What a wonderful home this could be



A dark and drafty ruin

I think I'd rather not

The stones once upon the wall

Lay crumbled and the wood is full of rot



"Worry not my love"

You say with a smile

"For hard work is rewarded

And never reached by guile

Do not look upon that which is

But rather that which may

Become a mighty fortress

To keep the beasts at bay"



"Hide your treasures within this keep

I shall guard them whilst you sleep

And come the morning bright and new

Your treasured thoughts shall accompany you

For you are mine to cherish

And with you come your thoughts

So in my care be you free

Of your demons and your haunts"
