You came when it was infinitely too late,
The youth you once abandoned met his fate.
The sun of waiting shone so long and bright,
My sea of love evaporated from sight.
Am I the one who longed so much to meet? No,
My heart and eyes from life have let retreat.
The zest and joy of life since you have left,
Not just on Fridays—every day I’m bereft.
You turned unkind; I soured on the world in turn,
Being bitter after you was easy to learn.
I wept but wasn’t seen as I should’ve been,
A blurred and troubled face was last foreseen.
You went afar and now you have returned?
My heart has no more room; by loneliness it’s burned.
What can be mended with apologies you make?
My life has passed; my pride was crushed, did break.
When out of time, even love holds no worth,
The remedy you bring has lost its mirth.
Final words… dear heart, your return’s in vain,
You came when it was infinitely too late again
