"No," He Said - The Vespers

Do you know what really moves you?

What makes you cry?

Do you know what makes you happy?

What brings you joy?

Do you know where your heart remains?

Where are you drawn to?

Do you know what you’ll be when you grow up?

What will you do?

No he said

No not yet

I am reminded how much I don’t know

In fact I know nothing

Sometimes I wonder how I will die

What will happen to me?

No he said

No not yet

Do you remember when I said

I wanted to be

Always together never apart

That I’d never feel differently?

No he said

No not yet

A gentle nudge

A pat on the back

I needn’t worry about all that yet

No he said

No not yet
