one thing i seek

melted by your fire
you are my one desire
captivated by your love
you are all that i ask for

searching for your heart
i will constantly pray
that i will have the heart to seek
your heart, above all hearts

one thing i seek
to have your heart
above all hearts

one thing i ask and i would seek - to see your beauty
to find you in the place your glory dwells


if you seek him, he will be found by you

have you lost your passion?

passion -
the song sung by a quiet lonely traveller
holds all his dreams, wishes, and virtues

this passion he holds is greater than any other
he travels on that long road searching for the same thing
over and over again, not stopping even once to rest
his secret passion, is one that takes time to move

come lonely traveller
the song that you sing why is it so sad?
have you lost something that might not be able
to be restored?

the passion he holds in his heart
shall never be forgotten

"passion"

passion
the want of desire
the depths of the soul
the fire inside

passion
it increases desire
it encourages hope
it creates fire
but may foster fear
fortifies the fool
and destroys

passion
can be the source of our best moments
- the joy of love
- the clarity of hatred
- the ecstasy of grief

passion
an elusive force - not easy to capture
it goes against laws, time or fashion
when we find ourselves in it
we would become slave to its memory
which could be sweet or bitter

passion
it hurts
sometimes more than we can bear
if we could live without it
perhaps we might have some kind of peace
but we would be hollow
living in empty rooms
living meaningless lives

passion
without it
we would be truly dead

what if tomorrow never comes?

time goes by every day, every week
almost every time i feel it is going by too fast
i look at pictures captured of the past
weddings, birthdays, funerals....
can i see pictures of my future?

as time goes by, things change
people change
and i change...

when days pass by, i get scared -
anticipating what the future holds
as i get older and the days grow shorter

what will tomorrow bring?

what if tomorrow never comes?
