Thou Art. You are. Now, what?

Thou Art. You Are. Now, What?

The man is gone for you, for now, the one who 

Risked with courage and tried to convince

Looking at and up and for your love

Ever after, for now, ever since

The man's gone who trusted in you 

Because of him, because of God 

Denying himself and obeying 

A whole good deal of a lot 

That man was neglected, ignored and some mistrusted 

That man was ugly, even though unintentionally, hurt 

That man was a foolish dog, a slinky cat, then a tiger 

Now being some resolved "trying to fly away" bird 

Could it have been some better? 

Couldn't it even have been good? 

Couldn't he have been fortunate? 

Supposing, indeed, one could! 

What is left residual is the woman 

Fine, fragile, prideful and frighten 

Longing for her man to support 

Being precious and enlighten 

Longing to be convinced 

Longing to be found by clue 

Longing to be such surprised 

A better whole life through 

Sitting in between and behind her walls 

She's lonely but definitely secure 

She still has got love to give 

Heavenly, net and pure 

Could it have been better?

Could it have been that good? 

Could she even have succeeded?

 Yeah, yes, I guess, that she could? 

One person is so little 

But the being is very big 

And the hope is still alive 

For you, my God, to stick 

Now, who are you now? 

And who do you want to be? 

The woman who is some lost? 

Or the man going to be Gee! 

Do you want to fight for good? 

Do you want to choose forever? 

Do you want to be that hero? 

Do you want to be clever? 

Could it be yet any better? 

Could it even be real good? 

Could it be stupendous? 

Absolutely, it could!
