Castle
By Firekatt

Light streams down in dust colored streams
Hitting the marble floor underneath the cedar beams
The halls are empty, devoid of sound
Except for spectres of the past, that to these ancient
walls remain bound
Cobwebs cover the corners of ceiling and floor
Rust is crusted over most of the iron-made door
This old castle has withstood many a war
The stone walls seeing much bloodshed and gore
It held balls for royalty
But did not admit those of poverty
And now it crumbles to the earth
Coming to the castle's final chapter since it's
creation, it's birth
