Songs for men to chant 5 - The stars are free
Posted on
The stars are free
You may have all the cake
but I have candles too
You may own all the land
but the stars are free
You may own the dreams
but hope is for all
You may claim all the music
but laughter is magical
You may have the big houses
but the sky shelters all
You may be driving in your car
but the wind runs free
You may count your wealth
but friends are priceless
You may be the élite
but we are all unique

Tales of love and confusion - Still the desire
Posted on
Still the desire
Lock yourself in towers of possessions
still the want to be free will arise.
Stand in vari-coloured lights
still the longing to sit in the dark will beckon
Stuff yourself with delicacies
still the desire to be empty will come.
Drown yourself in untold glasses
still the need to thirst will summon.
Cover yourself in limitless riches
still the longing to be naked will call.
Loose yourself in a cacophony of sound
still the yearning for silence will entice.
Drench yourself in a plethora of scents
still a breeze from the mountains will invite
and when it does,
answer,
answer true.
