Too Late.
-----------

Yes, I know of Love;
Yes, I know who loves me
And others who share love and friendship.

But it has been so long
So very long ago,
Almost lost in the depths of reminiscence

Life needs Love
And Life without Love
Is but an endurance to be got through day by day.

And day by day I decay
Along with my ability to think and enjoy
Alone with the unwanted present.

Too late!
We should have met before the time
The time I took to mature.

Only now, in fleeting moments
Do we share what we know could have been.
Such a happy ending, if only it had ever begun.
