- beyond what it was then
the cherished memories
the heartaches
the joys
I remember
what it was then
40 years ago
20 years ago
last month
now
I remember then
I honor what was
and now
I own what is
now
in the past
I acted a certain way
I wanted it to be a certain way
today
I interact in a new way
I interact with what is now
I accept what is now
today
I dance
create
be
now
today
in this now
beyond what was then
I Am
now
today
in this now
we are
alive
unique
and
together
now
today
in the middle of it all
we are
and
all is well
