wait for me at the gate like you used to do, my friend,
can not think of going into the city looking for you,
we had such great debates with the men of that place,
we were all so serious, brows knitted, frowns on each face,
so much time always so serious,
time has passed, now so perilous,
the days have gone dark,
faces have paled, time stand still,
have we failed, one another?
you have gone on ahead to make plans and prepare a place,
when you get back to the gate, I will be there too and
we can go on together, into the uncertain times
side by side two friends, on a life long journey, lost without
the other.
