It is a tragic fact I face- When contemplating time. That it took all our dreams and hopes- And left regrets behind. It took the youthful vigor, friend- Left weariness and dread- And morbid contemplation of- The fact I’ll soon be dead. Do I fear death? Why! Not at all- It should be plain to see- Mortality is not my foe- The wait is killing me. |
