Castle In The Air Poem by Apurva Prabhudesai

Castle In The Air

Rating: 5.0


As a child
Building castles in the air
Was a favourite game

The windows always open
The doors always welcome

Like cotton candy
Fluffy and light
Forever changing
Ever moving
The perfect place
When you were always dreaming

Further on my journey
Dark clouds of opinions
Filled over
My once protected castle
The doors and windows
No longer safe to be open

Voices, rumbling like angry winds
Claimed my castle was still mine
Though I knew
Long back it wastaken

I fought back, refused to give up
Not letting go
Of one thing that was truly mine
No longer
Was I afraid
Of the voices

Yes! My castle
was still mine
My happy place
From where
I got solace
