Mezzo Cammin Lyrics by Paul Moravec

Vita Brevis

0

Half of my life is gone, and I have let
The years slip from me and have not fulfilled
The aspiration of my youth, to build
Some tower of song with lofty parapet
Not indolence, nor pleasure, nor the fret
Of restless passions that would not be stilled
But sorrow, and a care that almost killed
Kept me from what I may accomplish yet;
Though, half-way up the hill, I see the Past
Lying beneath me with its sounds and sights,—
A city in the twilight dim and vast
With smoking roofs, soft bells, and gleaming lights,—
And hear above me on the autumnal blast
The cataract of Death far thundering from the heights
