House Of Cards

I'm building myself a house of cards

A Palace, if you please.


I keep building fearfully

As I ascend each level

Afraid it might fall down

And destroy my heaven.


Why then do you want to blow it away,

Shatter the walls of my safe place?


Hearts and Diamonds

Clubs and Spades,

Bricks and walls

That I have laid.


Till you open the window panes

And blow it all away.


I'm building myself a house of cards

A Palace, if you please.


Until you let it be...
