Empty Cup

Man has lived to survive
Man has lived for his life
When the storm comes, he finds refuge
When he is cold, he looks for warmth.
When he is lonely, he finds a companion.
Thy life of man is simple,
But interests sow the seeds of greed
When man wanted more, he created
When he wanted more, he waged war
When he wanted more companions, he stole them from others
When he wanted more, he became filled.
As he wanted more, simple turned complex
Confusion has reigned his mind
Lies clouded his heart.
Remember that man is simple, and simple is good
For thou hast created man is good
When man wanted more he lost good
Evil came, what is the absence of good, defiler of the just
For man only needs to do
Is to release what he has
For nothing in this world would matter
To think, we need an empty cup.
