The Castle

As the castle walls loomed up to the side They met for the first time eyes open wide Lost on the journey, not knowing what they’d find But unlike a fairy story, their love was not blind. They risked all they had for an hour or two Not knowing what would happen, neither one knew They shared a drink, and words so easy on the tongue Not realised those words would be love before long. Their castle they love and will never forget The love that they found, they will never regret The knight on his steed the girl by his side When he offered her love he didn't take her for a ride. She took his love; she kept it close to her heart He suffered with her when they had to part But they both knew it was a temporary thing When the time is right she may wear his ring. He must approach her parents and ask To climb the walls of the castle what a task But the castle where they met its doorway he knew It was via her heart and he just had to walk through. © ~GG~ 1/02/2013
