NOW I WAIT FOR THE THING THAT SHOULD HAVE FIRST COME

There was a time,

long years gone,

when I lived for people

and the years to come,

and through those

long years gone,

foolishly I lost the people

to death and own mistake;

withered the years to come

until the branches of time

now stand bare, 

and death I await here.
