Disclaimer: Star Wars belongs to George Lucas (or Disney? or whoever owns the rights? I'm not sure, but it's certainly not mine...)

"I" is Obi-Wan Kenobi, "you" is Anakin Skywalker. "They" are probably the other Jedi. "My friends" include a lot of Jedi, Padme Amidala, and Bail Organa (who's not dead, but certainly gone for the moment).

They said you were the Chosen One;
You bore it ill, my Padawan.
Did you not know that in my love
I'd sooner call you brother, son?

How did I fail, what did I lack
That drove you down the darkness' way?
What did I miss, why did you start
To fully turn from light away?

The galaxy by Empire claimed,
The Jedi slaughtered, Temple fell,
And generals now murdered by
The troops they thought they knew so well.

My friends have fallen, dead or gone,
To exile I myself resign;
What can I do, 'mid burning sand,
But contemplate this guilt of mine?

I can but wish you'd turned to me:
I loved you then and love you still;
And now I can but wonder if
I, changing, could have changed your will.

A/N: Just re-watched Revenge of the Sith, and thought a little Obi-WanAngst was in order. What do you think?
