Liilia Talts Morrison - Last Date

Night now falls
the hour is late
time has come
it will not wait

Days of fancy
and of song
long have faded
moved along

From the shadows
by the gate
fate appears
the final date

This appointment
won't take long
none escapes
nor can prolong

Night now falls
the hour is late
time has come
it will not wait.

Liilia Talts Morrison
