Just, Maybe

Maybe it was meant

All those nights I felt alone

Maybe it was right

For me not to call their love my own

Maybe I deserved

To be scarred again and again

Maybe I earned

The pain they would leave, which was becoming a trend

Maybe if I try

Somethings could possibly workout

Maybe if not

I would be comfortable with the blame the world would spout

Maybe I could win

If only I could find a way

Maybe I would give in

And just hope my sins would not decide to stay

Maybe I would quit

While the cards are showing me just a little favor

Maybe I would relish

The fine moments of memory I could possibly savor

Maybe I would relent

As the world falls down around my labors

Maybe I should be sent

To reconnect with all of my pains old labels

Or maybe I should just live

Solely on the peace I could give.

Just, maybe
