You know where to find me,
In my castle above the sea.
Hidden away amongst me gardens,
Sharing my secrets with my dreams.
The half-moon is shining brightly,
On the castle courtyard steps.
Bestowing visions of crystalline towers
And silver-encrusted powers.
My beautiful music flowing through the air,
Making the ancient melodies so clear.
Almost tangible but not quite,
All you’ll think of is my music tonight.
Silver moon, crimson sun,
Disaster soon to come.
But I’ll stay here alone,
In my castle above the sea.
Falling asleep amongst my gardens,
With dreams enveloping me.
You know where to find me,
In my castle above the sea.

I was sitting in the band hallway at my school skipping lunch, as usual. The orchestra teacher started playing this beautiful piece on the piano and I was instantly mesmerized. Feeling creative, I pulled out a pencil and paper then began to write.

Good job!! I like all the vivid descriptions of the castle, music, night, etc. =)
