House of CardsA Poem by LilypadIsolation killsFierce winds blow against the house of cards It does not shutter it, does not shake Inside closed walls, away from the ruckus and pollen Lives a soul proudly screening his greatness of his capabilities Only he is the king to his castle, without a princess, nor a dragon Afraid of the creatures that roam the world he sought inclosure from such horrors Thus he built a place where he can defend his fears from the monsters he sees Yet only he sees the demons, and never the saints, nor the greatness of the natural being Alone at home, he claims no slave to no other man, for he has not seen any another man The only man he sees, reflects from his eyes, a face he has only felt, but has never truly seen The man roams the halls of his walls, without concerns of being alone, since he has not felt anything else One night, the fearful man prepared his food, like he always does every other night He set the table of four dusty seats, only one has felt the touch of man The man eats his food, then in a second, it slipped too fast and cause him to choke, until red He looked around and hit himself, but it not help, it only delayed In a second, he gasped his last breathe and fell to the ground, utterly dead The king to his castle fell to his grave, but no one was there to mourn his death © 2015 LilypadAuthor's Note
