"do cusku sedu'u mi prami do" means "You are a said expression of me loving 
you". I think you mean "do cusku lo sedu'u mi prami do". The second "do" 
refers to the same person as the first "do". It would be otherwise if you had 
said "do cusku lu mi prami do li'u".

"mi viska le prenu poi prami ko" can mean either "Let me see the person who 
loves you" or "Be loved by the person I see". "do cusku lo sedu'u ko prami" 
is not a command; it is an assertion that someone is saying a command to 
himself. I don't know a language with a true first-person imperative, so I 
don't know how to say it.
