Nothing I Do

NOTHING I DO

Nothing I do,
No achievement
No honor
No recognition
No work done in the best way possible
No highest praise
No love even the happiest love
Nothing I do
Can change the fact of my old age-
Of my time running out-
Of my coming closer and closer all the time
To the inevitable end-
Nothing I do-
