'Fortress'

'Fortress'

Would that I

Have words

To shape

The Golden key

To fit your heart...

For you have

Armored it well

and sealed it shut

With molten lead.

Remembering the fire's pain

From those you've loved

But not again..

No..not again.

The treasure

You once gave so freely

Locked inside

Safe now

From pillagers....
