To live it up at last Is how I live down my past As a present to me Now presents how it may be But I rejected now Unreflected then somehow Put it on layaway To come back to some rainy day Though when it rained I knew Now was when so what to do To get it right this time How to make the poem rhyme That is this journal of A journey in the name of love Remembering the best Trying to forget the rest I find a place to face Me where sheltering in place Because my way is in Me there I find myself again Now is all I ever Had when I thought forever Was what then never mind When as how I got behind Forever was to blame Then when tomorrow never came But it was still today And having come the hard way To get it and be free Let us let go presently As who will get it right Down through the night now to the light As how I live down my past To live it up at last Steven Curtis Lance
