Wasted Time Poem by Charlie F. Kane

When I lie upon my deathbed,
Will I brood on wasted time?
Will I lie and think about all the
Things I have not done?
All the times I spent lying around,
Waiting for the time to change?
Will I ponder about all the things
I was too scared to do?
Will I think myself foolish
For all the times I said ‘No’?
Will I pray for another year
So I can make up for wasted time?

I suppose that is years away yet.
I still have some time left.
