A poem about our time in this world.
In Time

When shall we stay?
When shall we go?
When shall we venture off,
Off the path we know?
When shall we live
And when shall we die?
When shall the time come
For us to wonder why?
Why shall we stay?
Why shall we go?
Why shall we venture off,
Off the path we know?
Why do we live?
And why must we die?
Why must the time come,
For us to wonder why?
In time, my friends, in time.
In time we shall go.
In time we shall stay.
In time we shall venture off,
Off the path we’ll stray.
To live, the time is now.
To die, ‘tis yet to come.
The time is now, to wonder why,
In time, my friends in time.
Where shall we stay?
Where shall we go?
Where shall we venture to,
Off the path we know?
Where do we live?
And where shall we die?
Where shall the time come
For us to wonder why?
How shall we stay?
How shall we go?
How shall we venture off,
Off the path we know?
How should we live?
And how must we die?
And how shall the time come
For us to wonder why?
In time, my friends, in time.
In time we shall stay.
In time we shall go.
In time we shall venture off,
Off the path we know.
To live, the time is now.
To die, the time is yet to come.
The time is now, to wonder why.
In time, my friends in time.
