for Stephanie Lynn That was then but this is now Then was when but now is how And why as I the hard way Learned how I turned out somehow After the rest the best way For me to be anyway Now maybe how I may be Maybe why and then why not When I am with what I got Out of what went into the What I brought with nor forgot And the whatnot with the what In this specificity Is what it is to be me What I have is what I need Who I am is me indeed As you are who are to do And be as you are as you We got here and it was rough But we are and are enough What we have is what we need Who we are is us indeed Steven Curtis Lance
