You Cannot Own the Mountain

You still seek to own me
I cannot be possessed
The djinn of love, the Wild Heart
Still beats within my chest

You cannot own a mans soul
It's like owning the beach
Grasp the sand and lose it
Watch it trickle to your feet

You cannot own the mountain
Without missing its grandeur
Hubris is a foolish goal
A self inflicted slander!

The trickle of the hourglass
The ticking of the clock
Reminders of eternity
We'll meet again, just watch

Never seek to be possessed
Never seek to own
Embrace the djinns of spinning love
Whirling round my throne
