The Fortress

I close all doors for the poisonous dissertations,
 Lay down my thoughts to the rebellious heart.
Fearing an unknown disaster is on its way,
Cleaning the streets of afflatus night & day.
As I surrender the fortitude watching the same dark sky,
Mopping the floor of broken dreams with cold dead eyes.
I hear a voice assuring me what I know nothing of,
Assisting my pliable mind with resilient hopes, hurting with every knock.
With every brick in the fortress of devastated mind,
I block everything that can penetrate slightly inside.
The canons instructed to fire upon & let no foreign thought in,
Guard the mind, as I fake to grin
A fortress this strong with weapons so potent,
I see the canons open fire with no invaders at the end.
The turret turned towards my heart, Obeying the command
As the enemy hid inside, Playing it all along
