Waiting

How did it get so late so soon.

   I'm sure i said, we'll meet at noon,
   It's way past then, late afternoon.
   While waiting here, the time just flew.
   And now i don't know what to do.
   Why do i stay it's not a game.
   My watch has stopped is it to blame.
   Why am i here, i have forgot.
   I'm tired now and very hot.
   Well do i go , or just remain
   Until it's time to try again.
   Well let me see, what is the date.
   I'm not surprised that i am late,
   The time and place was yesterday.
   I hope that i, can find my way
   Home in the dark; is that the moon
   How did it get so late so soon.
