Feet cold and shivers going down my body,
I look to the castle that towers above this old town.
If there is to be an occupied residence,
It is the castle.
When did time take over?
As I stand, wondering how I got here
And when a flood came to this place,
I ponder on whether I should leave the waters
For the castle, a shadow overhead, and bats surrounding.
When did time take over?
Is there danger up ahead?
The water around me; it overrides my questioning of travel.
As I take a step forward, I get more and more determined
To reaching my destination.
I am cold and I need warmth.
Time and fear will not take over me.
