Don Marquis

Fate often puts all the material for happiness and prosperity into a man's hands just to see how miserable he can make himself with them.

Don't Nibble With a Quibble Missed

Eliminate steps you waste.
And move on the case,
To do what it takes...
To make it!

Eliminate steps you waste.
And move on the case,
To do what it takes...
To make it!

Decide to say goodbye...
To all your trials and denials,
Served on a plate.
As you wait in hesitation,
To nibble...
With a quibble missed.

Decide it's much too late...
To celebrate a fate,
Some wish to fizzle!
To make you miserable!

Eliminate steps you waste.
And move on the case,
To do what it takes...
To make it!

There's nothing to it,
But to do it!

Eliminate steps you waste.
And move on the case,
To do what it takes...
To make it!

Prove that you can do it!
And...
Eliminate steps you waste.
And move on the case,
To do what it takes...
To make it!

Don't nibble,
With a quibble missed.

Decide it's much too late...
To celebrate a fate,
Some wish to fizzle!
To make you miserable!

It's your fate.
It's never too late.

Don't be so miserable!

It's your fate.
It's never too late.

Don't be so miserable!

It's your fate.
It's never too late.

Don't be so miserable!

Don't nibble,
With a quibble missed.

It's your fate.
It's never too late.

Don't be so miserable!
It's your fate.
It's never too late.

Don't be so miserable!

It's your fate.
It's never too late.
Don't be so miserable!

Earth Working As A Whole

Earth working as a whole
If we look at the planet as a whole
a system of networks
we would change what we know
Everything, and everyone working
together for the common good
Peace, prosperity, happiness would be understood
No more survival for everyone’s needs are met
Energy is spent on creatively helping
each other and the planet better yet
Not a lot for a little
and a little for a lot
Prosperity would be enjoyed by all
status wouldn’t be based on what material things you got
If you took the view of how our planet Earth is run
we humans would be ashamed
and motivated to start this plan bar none

My Fate Has Been Sealed....

My Fate Has Been Sealed....

your love placed inside my heart...

came to me without prior notice...

owned it and got into it to burn this heart...

how pity this heart...

this heart which i hold..

pity you are, my heart from this love...

from those fires which burned you...

and changed your life, up to down...

is that your fate...?

this fate, which wrote on you...?

to be always in love..

in love with whom who don`t know how to take care of you...

who owns this rights...

to make you always in pains...

who can change this...

and who can put the end to this fate..

pity you are, my pity heart...

i know that i shall meet my fate oneday...

but i need a fate which my heart deserve...

i need a happiness...

the happiness which i seek and dream always about...

i will accept my fate for what it was...

but if this fate completed my life with you...

Prosperity to humanity

Prosperity, prosperity
Prosperity to humanity
I brought to you
Love and solidarity
Peace and harmony
Kings go to war
And humanity fall
But i brought prosperity to humanity
So why then should you curse me
Instead of blessing me
I need you to love me
For it is prosperity
I brought to humanity
It power and glory to humanity
Accountability and transparency
A higher levity
Prosperity, prosperity
Prosperity to humanity

Life Keeps On Revolving Around Fate

We came
To this world
Because of Fate
We all think of fate
Pray and meditate
Look at god in hope
Because of faith
He is the one
Who decides the fate?
Happiness, unhappiness
Success and failure
Are all one’s fate
Death is unavoidable
But when one get’s it?
Is fate
Some believe some don’t
Life keeps on
Revolving around fate

Living In The Material World

Im living in the material world
Living in the material world
Cant say what Im doing here
But I hope to see much clearer,
After living in the material world
I got born into the material world
Getting worn out in the material world
Use my body like a car,
Taking me both near and far
Met my friends all in the material world
Met them all there in the material world
John and paul here in the material world
Though we started out quite poor
We got richie on a tour
Got caught up in the material world
From the spiritual sky,
Such sweet memories have i
To the spiritual sky
How I pray
Yes I pray
That I wont get lost
Or go astray
As Im fated for the material world
Get frustrated in the material world
Senses never gratified
Only swelling like a tide
That could drown me in the
Material world
From the spiritual sky,
Such sweet memories have i
To the spiritual sky
How I pray
Yes I pray
That I wont get lost
Or go astray
While Im living in the material world
Not much giving in the material world
Got a lot of work to do
Try to get a message through
And get back out of this material world
Im living in the material world
Living in the material world
I hope to get out of this place
By the lord sri krsnas grace
My salvation from the material world
Big ending

This Lady Is Too Senstitive

Prosperity is a lady, who is very fortunate,
To keep the richness of health, wealth and happiness,
She seeks the human, who are brisk and vibrant,
Lack of laziness, over indulgence and ignorance,
When the human are eager to pursue her,
She can easily befriend them and solicit them,
She can be a slave in the hands of shrewd people,
Even she walks on four legs as the loyal dogs,
Once the boss of her starts to abuse her,
She may abscond as the fairies in the tales,
It may take a long time to woo her on the laps,
Prosperity is a lady, not a man to be clumsy and unkempt,
If she is with you, hold her tight: she will hug you in delight.

Depressed Not Dieing...

When was it or have you never realised that nothing makes you happy in this world,
You could have all the money an all the love in this world but what would make me happy I ask? Because life is not worth living miserable as sin an my happiness can not last in my conscience within, I may think that I’m strong although I know I am not when happiness is not in my hart, I could have it all but what is that worth when all I really crave for, is someone to love me to have an to hold me and make me happy once more. but is this the truth am I really in pain or am I just selfish an lying again or can it be true I lost my happiness with you an today I feel like dieing, because the pain in my hart just wont go away and I’m emotionally exhausted from trying. And the tears I have cried have left my eyes dry an I still cant sleep for trying, but please don’t be mad because I am sad I will continue trying, for the happiness I seek is always just out of reach, look I’m just depressed not dying…

Grace the world with your glow of happiness

Do not chase happiness
Search within you
There are lot many things
Inside you
Which have reasons
To make you happy
You pursuit or search for happiness outside
Does not take you anywhere
As what seemingly has a stock of happiness
Once you reach or achieve it
You realize that happiness
Lies further ahead somewhere
And you hunt for happiness
Takes a new turn
And this goes on and on
Only to make you understand
That you are back in square one
Devoid of happiness, your original search
Happiness, thus, cannot be anywhere else
But within you
Do not be on a stealthy stalk for happiness
Simply because others do so
Search within and discover
The happiness in you
Do not be on a race for happiness
But grace the world
With the glow of
Happiness within you

2.22 Woman & Home

A home not of bricks or just man be,
An army of men - an encampment to see,
It takes woman and her sincerity,
To make a home and fill it with glee.
[124] - 2
So the women in all the societies,
Be the cause of happiness truly,
And their minds ever reflect clearly,
Happiness - progress with security.
[125] - 2
Happiness from homes shall but flee,
Where but drained be the chastity,
Sex and morals with appalling laxity,
With no value in virtue or fidelity.
[126] - 2
Sacrificing for all be the trump clearly,
Not materialism or commercial beauty,
Woman - around who rests the family,
Provides the pillar of profound unity.
[127] - 2
On her happiness depends prosperity,
Holding the highest place in society,
The woman at home will ever but be,
The creator, destroyer - the power to see.
[128] - 2

Obstacle 1

I wish I could eat the salt off of your lost faded lips
We can cap the old times, make playing only logical harm
We can cap the old lines, make playing that nothing else will change
But she can ray, she can ray, she can ray, she can ray, she's bad
She can ray, she can ray, she can ray, she's bad
Oh, she's bad
But it's different now that I'm poor and aging, I'll never see this face again
You go stabbing yourself in the neck
And we can find new ways of living make playing only logical harm
And we can top the old times, clay-making that nothing else will change
But she can ray, she can ray, she can ray, she can ray, she's bad
She can ray, she can ray, she can ray, she's bad
Oh, she's bad
It's different now that I'm poor and aging, I'll never see this place again
You go stabbing yourself in the neck
But it's different now that I'm poor and aging, I'll never see this place again
And you go stabbing yourself in the neck
It's in the way that she posed, it's in the things that she puts in my head
Her stories are boring and stuff, she's always calling my bluff
She puts, she puts the weights into my little heart
And she gets in my room and she takes it apart
She puts the weights into my little heart
I said she puts the weights into my little heart
She packs it away
It's in the way that she walks
Her heaven is never enough
She puts the weights in my heart
She puts, oh she puts the weights into my little heart

One Day Realized What She Did! ! ! ! ...

She'll realise her fate one day
That day will be too late
Cos I'll be gone but still alone
I would just sit and wait
I gave her time to make a choice
She didn’t say anything
The silence says a lot to me
It burns with ache and sting
She'll realise her fate one day
She may be calling me
She messed me up completely.
your carelessness made our life miserable.........End that i never think of..........................
