Forever waiting

I lay here waiting for the day we meet again
 
why is it the great gears of life not turn in our favor my dear
 
why must i deal with the anguish of having to wait for that day.
 
I am a broken man but strong to these words
 
"I will wait for you"
 
and so time goes on unchanged  
 
springs, summers, falls, winters  
 
still I wait for you.
 
and as I draw my last breath, I wait for you.
 
now we get to meet anew  
 
me as not me and you as not you.
 
finally we meet for the first.
