castle
The truth came to visit me today.
He stopped in to say
I don’t need you in any way.
From the fires of pain
I will rise and heal.
From the ashes of sadness
I will build a castle of fortune.
Don’t knock.
Don’t ring.
My riches come from your absence.
My happiness comes from your leave.
I am free of the dirty web you weave.
Excuse my smile as I walk away.
I said goodbye to your sadness today.
