Walking the wall. Patrolling around. They spot it-
An army marching onward. With a battering
Ram, the shadows begin their assault.
Nobles begin to scream and scatter,
Mangonel at the ready to fire
Engaging the weapons, preparing to fight.

Turret be my estranged eye
Revets staring at me from all sides.
Arrow loops span the
Parapets, filled with knights enslaved for battle.
My arms raised above my head and
Exacting plans that were never made.

Heart storming thy castle of bones
Useless shambles of a belfry
Reality fighting its way through
The drawbridge is rising strong.
Moat dreams rushing passed
Entirely closed off.

Ballistas aimed right at thyne center
Escades taken over by the unwavering obsessions
Allures are being conquered
Torture is echoing in the back of my mind
Meurtrieres are blocked by the
Enemy scaling the walls.

Running back and forth,
Utter defeat consumes the troubled soul
Inner wards overthrown
Nullified orders rampage in the skull
Mind breaking and no longer in control. The
Enceinte that is my head is now non-existent.

Tyrannical screams reverberate about the bailey
Unraveling the mental seams.
Returning to the baseline
Nearing the true precipice
Maturity counters with wisdom and
Escapes through the postern gate.

Hearing the voices shoot off of my head,
Eerily waiting for me to
Leave the battle behind. Nothing is right,
Parapets crumble under the pressure.
Morphing into a cacophony,
Each no more individually.

Surrounded by the noise,
Ashlars surround what has been forgotten.
Varying in degrees of madness
Eagerly waiting for the true return.
My arm extends towards something,
Even when it is grasping at nothing.

Corbels need reinforcement
Usher forth anew
Return to me
Everything that is truly
Mine. Cover the
Entire castle in serenity.

Springalds will release the tension
Laying down the lines of change
Avenge the knights that were lost.
Yonder venture up towards the sky
Motte serves as the rising point
Elapse thy judgement on me.

Knight thee fare thee well
Intertwine the fates of mine. Find
Loopholes open up for clearer shots.
Leaving just one option behind
My end is nigh
Eliminate the last threat.

Forebuildings embrace me from above
Revets with angels welcoming.
Eternal strife
Ending now
Memento mori
Everlasting peace.
