Maybe Poem by Jeremy Willson

Maybe

Rating: 5.0


Maybe one day I'll leave and no one will ever see me again
Maybe people would care but only then
Maybe it's cause they took me for granted
Maybe they think that I'd never leave them abandoned
Maybe I feel abandoned already so I won't cry
Maybe I want them to feel stranded with not even a goodbye
Maybe if they had only seen how broken I really am
Maybe if they had given a damn
Maybe if they weren't so selfish or weren't so hard headed
Maybe if they heard the quiver in my voice when I said it
Maybe just maybe I'm not actually okay
Maybe I'll just need someone to be there for me that day
Maybe then I wouldn't go
Maybe it was just for show
Maybe

Maybe and if, if is the smallest word with the greatest implications, life is full of maybes, sometimes that which we put in is expotentually equal to what we pull out, sometimes :)

I enjoyed this poem immensely, all the maybe questions with problem solution associations; strangely after posting 'The Ghost Walker: The Snow Leopard Is Silent Shadows' I also am diminishing leaving reducing imput for a time...
