PRISONER OF TIME 1 © 2007
In everything I was late,
I always arrived after the end,
I missed the chances, the moments,
I let life run without me.
I hope that death,
With its inevitable shadow,
Will decree the same fate,
And approach, slow and uncertain,
Like everything that slipped away in life.
May it be tardy, as I was in everything,
So that I might, at last,
Find the time I lost,
On the shores of what I never lived.
