How well I know the fortress
By the ton, a heavy sigh

Built around me in the hush of springs
Tangled in my own heart strings
Seraph of the granite gate
To be heard articulate
The course of me your hands to cup
I seek the passage lift me up

For water wells
Insistent in the flow it dwells
In trickle of my destiny
Niagara in the least to be
Around the broken promises
Erode of blistered homage’s

This kiss awakens of the sun
In fire melts a truth so hardly won

How well I know the fortress
By the ton, a heavy sigh

As always, TD, I enjoy your work and your style.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

"How well I know the fortress

"sigh"  I love this line; it's so visual!
