CASTLE OF DREAMS

Castle of cards Standing so tall At the top of the world You’ll never fall Gust of wind Brings you back to earth

Castle of sand Small but solid A wave to erase All of your hard work Not a single trace Nothing is left

Castle of glass Shining so bright, eternal The moonlight turns you Into sparkling diamonds A storm shatters it Now nothing but shards

Castle of wood Sturdy and strong Protected from the night A single spark Leaves only ashes Blown in the wind

Castle of stone Impenetrable defences Safer than ever No need to run anymore Fated earthquake Made it my tomb
