To Live To Die
in desperately seeking you
i am actually
desperately seeking myself
because U and I,
Because we have long
become One
in This
& That
Because One cannot live
Without the Other
Because we had that Vow
To live
To die
Together.

Desparately
Every night its the same
I hear you callin my name
Youre lyin next to me
I give into your charms
You disappear in my arms
I realize its just a dream, but
Desperately I long to feel your touch
But you left me all alone in love
And now I
Shake the sleep from my head
And try to crawl out of bed
Today is just another day
I make the coffee for one
I turn the radio on
Pretend that everythings ok, but
Desperately I long to feel your touch
But you left me all alone in love
And now I
Know theres no reason to smile
Its gonna take me awhile
Cause I still love you desperately
Desperately I long to feel your touch
But you left me all alone in love
And now I
Watch the sun goin down
There aint nobody around
I feel a night in the breeze
I keep on tellin myself
I dont need nobody else
And I can do as I please, but
Desperately I long to feel your touch
But you left me all alone in love
And now I
Desperately I long to feel your touch
But you left me all alone in love
And now
Every night its the same
I hear you callin my name
I still love you desperately
I still love you
I still want you
I still love you desperately

Desperately Autumn
Desperately autumn
Trees are bleeding
Winds escort leaves desperately teaming.
Desperately autumn
Hearts are slower beating,
But I’ll never leave your side.
Desperately autumn
Fantasy leaves, now revealing
Desperately autumn fantasy now retreating.
Desperately autumn seeks September
And never to leave your side.

Addressing a Reality
What is that you are seeking?
'Seeking?
I'm not in a search to seek anything.
Not anymore.
When I sought my life to live,
With an acknowledgement...
I did too much of that for others,
I found what I needed.
What you observe me doing,
Is a living of my life.
And it took me a while to identify it,
As 'my' life to live.
And it may seem to you I am seeking,
Because of an excitement you see me express.
Seeking?
No.
I am addressing a reality I have found.'

Desperately
There's something 'bout the way
You looked at me
Made me think for a moment that
Maybe we were meant to be
Living our lives separately
And It's strange that things change but not me wanting you so desperately
[chorus]
Oh, I cannot ignore it,
I keep giving in,
But I should know better
'Cause there was something 'bout the way you looked at me
And it's strange that things change but not me wanting you so desperately
You looked my way, you said "you frustrate me"
Like you're thinking of lines and times when you and I were you and me
You took our chance out on the street
then i missed my chance and chances are
It won't be coming back to me
[chorus]
So desperately... ho
[chorus]
I want you so desperately, oo oo oo
I keep giving in,
But I should know better
I keep giving in,
But I should know better
So desperately
I want you so desperately

Today we ought to be able to see first that Booker T. Washington faced a situation in which he was seeking desperately for a way out, and he could see no way out except capitulation.

Rain After Summer
Hidden for long lost years
He can't suppress anymore
The burden of forced out cheers
Made sadness a distant folklore!
He's desperately seeking a place
Silent enough for his heartthrob
Where none can see his face
Unhindered he can sob!
He needed it for long he felt
Unfrozen his heart would melt
Before his tears dry up unspent
They must gush out in torrent!
He must leave behind the arid mile
The aching jaw of a false smile
And shed in abandon all his pain
So that he could be himself once again!

Letter to God
My Almighty,
Sanctity is yours
Seeking is me
Wisdom is yours
Seeking is me,
That my adversaries,
Would honour me
And friends would,
Harm me not
The universe is infinite
Yours
I to live and fly.

Forfeiture
Seeking love,
She lost her innocence;
Seeking security,
She lost her freedom;
Seeking passion,
She lost her honor;
Seeking solace,
She lost her sanity;
Seeking an end,
She lost her life.

Oblivious To Me
In a league all your own.
Standing on the highest peak.
Seeing someone who is barely hanging on.
Will you to give them a hand even if it tares you down.
To proud, to accomplished.
But the trophies do not speak.
But the awards do not speak.
I am searching.
I am seeking.
I am still breathing.
But still the blind man won't see me.
How do I reach him when he is just so far gone.
And if he does he will mow me down like his lawn.
I am a hated enemy.
I stand for everything he doesn't.
I love even when kicked like I am a dog.
I care even when one spits upon my face.
I help even its not wanted but so desperately needed.
I can see her cut open and bleeding.
And I will save her if you won't.
The cost for me will be great.
Yet I will not even hesitate.
Sacrifice are but to be made.
The rain is pouring down upon my parade.
But all I can ever see is the sun shining.
My mind, body, heart, soul seeking meditation.
And it brings me this feeling of happiness and joy.
When she wakes up she will be smiling.
Happy to still be among the living.

Serching
Searching.
In vain I search but I search on,
Along life`s lonely corridor,
Seeking, seeking ever seeking,
Yet knowing not for what I`m searching,
But eagerly await each morrow,
Praying it will end this sorrow,
This sorrow I try so hard to hide
The tears that will not be denied,
The past is past, the joy, the pain,
I cannot live the past again,
But through the bitter mist must I
Search on.

Life I Live
The life I live
Is so real
The life I live
Seems like a big deal
The life I live
Is full of pain
Form the cradle
To the grave
The life I live
Is full of sorrow
And will always be seeking
A better tomorrow
The life I live
Waiting for to be great
Will get better
On a latter date
The life I have
Was given to me
The life I live
Is as true as can be

Live in The Present
Live every second in fear of the Lord;
Spend every moment seeking Truth called God;
Pass every day with industry and love;
Weeks and years will fly, away like a dove.
Do your duty well to your Motherland;
Serve your brethren all using your own hand;
Walk every day talking to God beside;
Talk to Him your problems, let Him decide.
Live in the present, morrow need not come;
Live for a good cause, world will then welcome;
Live always ready, meet death anytime;
Live for the Maker’s sake in every clime!

Something To Live For
(1939) duke ellington, billy strayhorn
I want something to live for
Someone to make my life an adventurous dream
Oh, what wouldnt I give for
Someone whod take my life and make it seem
Gay as they say it ought to be
Why cant I have love like that brought to me?
My eye is watching the noon crowds
Searching the promenades seeking a clue
To the one who will someday be my
Something to live for
Something to live for
Something to live for

Don't Take Her From Me
Roy orbison
If you don't really love her
Don't take her from me
Because i really love her
And need her desperately
If you don't plan to give
All your love, for as long as you should live
Don't take her from me
If she's not something special
Don't take her from me
Because she's something special to me
Can't you see?
If she's not number one
Every day, till your whole life is done
Don't take her from me
There is only one for me
She is all there could ever be
So don't take her from me

No One Succeeds
Benefits with opportunities were there,
To stare them in the face.
Their chances weren't chances at all to take.
Just acknowledging their gratefulness,
With a showing they were prepared to receive.
But they chased away everything that was given,
By acts of envy and their own deep rooted jealousies.
'Unity! ' They exclaim, 'Will set us free.'
They say this but argue amongst themselves,
Since the definition of what that means...
Provides those who declare wanting it,
No individualized spotlight of getting attention...
Wished by an ego seeking that desperately.
And,
Of course...
They see to it that no one succeeds.
And those who do,
They campaign to see them bleed.

Feelings: Will Cinderella Ever Go To The Ball
My biggest fear since I was small has
ever been fear of boring nothingness
I commiserated with the animals for
their confinement to the here and now
and their enslavement to nature’s cycles
desperately seeking my own escape
through mind- power and ethereal
thoughts, but today I realize BEING is
JOY –only I am bereft of that privilege
of joyful being through my allergy…
I’m so glad to know the goodness of
the universe, but my question is
why was I born without the ability
to enjoy being ‘per se’, confined
to discomfort and pain – why was
I left out of everything? And will
this Cinderella ever get to go
to the ball?

Impeccable Manners
All are impostors a bit in this earth.
Seeking perfect people is nothing worth.
Mending of gaps in manners
one to one, makes us all learners.
'Live and let live' is the way to mirth.

As Long As I Shall Live
As long as I shall live I shall live with other people
And god will be there for me
As long as I shall sleep in a warm bed during the winter
I shall have my dreams
As long as I live I shall have friends
As long as I live I will listen to music because music is healing
And sometimes I feel tha my sould and me can benefit withthe music
As long as I live I shall see some Clear blue sky
As long as I live I shall have friends
As long as I live I will try to end my depression
As long as I live I shall sing the blues
As long as I live I shall have no depression anymore because there will Be people to support me in my daily life
As long as I live I shall be hungry for God's word
