I built a castle

A Poem by Mehar Anaokar

I built a castle
Shiny and clean
A brand new space
Just for me

I added towers
And balconies
And long stairwells
And tapestries

The floors were of marble
The walls of stone
I had glass chandeliers
And golden thrones

I had flower bouquets
And armours galore
And tons of jewels
My friends would adore

I built a castle
Everyone stared
For it was enchanting
And beyond compare

I built a castle
In the air
And while my life wasted
I lived there
