: poetry :

Long Ago

So I stand here alone, the worse fate for a man
worse than death is this time spent here on this earth
in a world made for two

Long ago God crafted this place through time and from space
in place he set everything and then into there he placed me
but it seems he left someone out

A friend, a female, a love of mine for this time here on Earth
someone two share with, to speak with, to spend my life with
and to praise God as two
