Fallen Kingdoms lay beyond the horizon
in a sea of forgotten dreams;
swept away by the formidable tides
that laid wrath upon the beach.

Castles of sand and seaweed flags,
a seashell drawbridge and stone turrets;
demolished by an army of waves
that warned us not of any attack.

To the graveyard of the many lost,
the kingdom sinks beneath.
Descending deeper and deeper into the depths,
never again to be seen.

Dreams made of sand,
are devoured by the sea.
