Castle

Castle

Inherent ….

Wearing my heart

On thy sleeve

I succumb to the pressure

I bow out,

I take my leave

Placing my heart

Behind a fortress

Anticipating my gatekeepers call

He comes to scale these tethered walls

Seeking entrance

With words of love, poetic rhymes

While I wait to feel the magic

Of the emotions that I hide

For what seems like long ago,

Your words captured my heart,

To a place I would fall

Continually, all the way down

Where I would land waiting

While my writer’s soul

Lays dormant in a dungeon

Chiseled out in the corner

Of my heart..

Waiting for it’s release

With the beckoning of his words

And their tantalizing call
