Dark Silence

A dark castle
Rose from the ashes
Of a broken dream.
A sinister presence
Crept through the empty rooms.
The light from a blood-red moon
Danced in the shadows of a haunted forest.
And every scream that was not heard
Echoed in the silence of passing time.

I'm glad to have managed to convey a sense of dread!
