My life has gotten small But I get it after all More than when it was big Then and with so much to dig Through to find what was real And then to know what to feel It took awhile to see Through the illusion of it To the what to love it That was only lonely me To find I could depend On myself to be my friend Who would know what to do When I knew to be with you Seeing you being who are Familiar if from afar But first I had to find Who I was and leave behind Whoever I was not To forget the answers ask The questions drop my mask Remember what I forgot And finally break free Beyond the hocus-pocus Of big ideas too small My life small but in focus To get it after all Free here now belatedly This here now not that there then I will not go back again +Steven Curtis Lance Copyright MMXIII
