Seller of Dreams


While I chase my own driven dreams

I’ll hold you close in all my schemes

With happiness, I’ll wade the rivers of sadness

Of broken lives and material madness

I'll build palaces for homeless gnomes

Who live beneath the rotting domes

Of homes made of leaves and sticks

Not for them shelters of bricks

Your dreams I’ll share with them for sure

Towards brightness use them as lure

For hopes lost in today’s shame

Like a talisman your unknown name

Will lead me to the rivers they seek

The landless, the sick and the meek

You’ve given me strength to carry the cross I bear

And revel in the thorny cloak I wear
