Castle Mind by English Minor published on 2022-04-03T21:19:21Z “Castle Mind” Run Through the gardens Of your mind A castle guarded Yet undefined Your dearest fancies Your secret friend Here Take your sword It’s just a stick But vastly more With a little magic All your own You’re on your own But not alone, never Life will always be like this Timeless, charming, childish bliss Open-hearted mind-soul kiss Search The many worlds That you contain Imagination whirls Over it you reign A fearless knight A noble, dashing swain Dash Shadowed figments In your mind The castle’s breached But unresigned You’re nearly grown All up on your own But not alone, never Boredom befalls the idle mind Fruitful soil out of time Where I myself my self do find Hold To your vision Beyond your walls Nothing’s what it seems No not at all World growing real Here comes the fall Grasp Fading images From your sleep Life’s laid you low Now sleep’s your keep All on your own You’re on your own And so alone, you never...
