Castles

Castles

A Poem by Duckey

I built a castle around my heart
So nothing and no one could get in 
By day the gates were closed to all
And by night they were guarded
By soldiers on horseback 
With arrows slung across their backs
And bows in hand
Inside there lived a fair maiden
Who's hair was soft as silk
And a voice as beautiful
As the nightingales 
But she was lonely
So i opened the gates to my heart
And let others in to keep
Her company
So is no longer lonely
But the footsteps in my heart
Of so many people
Make it feel like
It's way too close to breaking
