The Castle's Tower


How do I get to you? Kept in the tower above the castle, the prince has you in his grasp. You are not locked up, no chains are involved, but I am no knight, and you don't need saving. A feast for lords. I look down the table, and your prince is not present, yet they say he is noble. I could stare for hours, a smile always spreading, at the sight of the fair maiden. It always gets me, a smile so radiant. I could stare for hours, at the maiden in the window, high in the castle's tower.
