Poetic-Verses
the sight left unseen
Once I saw my castle on top of the hill~~
It was beautiful and magnificent..
It glittered and gleamed of Gold and was
made of the finest Ivory imaginable..
It was my home~~
I believed it to be real~~
Until the day I put on my new spectacles..
and saw things for what they are..
I became sadder still in my heart..
For I could see all too clearly now..
It was all an illusion~~
What I had seen before..
What now lays before me is filth, trash
and refuse..
~~I have since thrown away my glasses..
For I still appreciate living in Ivory palaces..
Where all that glitters is Gold..
And what is trash to some..
is still really, just my home..
