Ode to Life
my friend,
my foe,
to thee
to which
I wand'ring go.
I cannot help
that which
I am,
but want
to be
the best I can.
Tis not
too late
to start anew,
for future's sake
I'll take
my cue,
so when
my days
are at an end,
to God
I hope
my soul to send.

Meine Seele (my soul)
To love, to sing a song of hope
and know that thou'st cannot reply,
but heart and soul refuse to cope
so whither surely, I will die.
If only I would turn and see
the beauty of this world around,
His majesty I then would see,
and hear the song of life resound.
For Thee my Lord, for Thee I yearn,
for Thee alone my soul doth burn.
and know that thou'st cannot reply,
but heart and soul refuse to cope
so whither surely, I will die.
If only I would turn and see
the beauty of this world around,
His majesty I then would see,
and hear the song of life resound.
For Thee my Lord, for Thee I yearn,
for Thee alone my soul doth burn.

Zu Lieben
To love with all my heart at last
and wish for nothing else I do,
but then when time and love do clash,
go hopping, heart, like kangaroo.
But this is not my fault at least,
for time I hate as much as you.
So when to me, you come to tease,
remember this; at least you knew.
So then when time and love do meet,
will truly be a lovely treat.

Facebook Junkie
Oh to you, the facebook "pro"
who knows what, where, and why things go,
to you who has no life, no brain,
to you who facebook keeps insane.
For you, for you, I feel no shame,
and to you, on you, cannot blame.
Technology you cannot tame,
admit to you I am the same.
For never this I could contain,
and now, with you, am just as lame.
