Her City
She had walls built tall and strong
Of joy and anguish
Every tiny memory could be seen etched into them
Years of hurricanes and storms wouldn’t be able to tear down her city
She had watch towers built
Of wisdom and recklessness
Not a single bird could go by without being seen by them
Watching over, protecting the city once made of ash and dust
She had a majestic castle in the midst of this magical city
No other beauty could surpass this home
It preserved a fragile and gentle gift
One so rare that once it was lost
It would never return
A gift that had once been at the verge of vanishing
It was worth more then gold and was more dangerous than fire
Her city worked day and night
To protect this thing
This perplexing thing
That no one could understand
This thing
Also known as
Love.
