When I Must Go Poem by James McLain

When I must go to where it then was
Before there was sleep and darkness stretched far
And caught by the wind like leaves living began

There where it was the future the past
No love, no hate nor sweet sorrow regrets
Above us no change no thoughts
When I must go again to where it then was
Before there was sleep and darkness stretched far

And caught by the wind like leaves living began
There where it was in your future my past

No love and no hate nor sweet sorrow regrets
Above us no change no thoughts shall we see
And now knowing all of this for we shall then all be
