Maybe

Maybe all the prose and poems will remain secrets.

Maybe the fire in my heart is turning into ice.

Maybe all my wishful thinking are useless because yours are for her.

Maybe you in a blue shirt equals me in a blue heart.

Maybe all the stories about you were true, I just assumed they weren't.

Maybe you really are less than what you seem to be when all your little things are added up.

Maybe all the portraits in the world would be better to look at tonight.

Maybe you're not what I thought you were.
Maybe this is all it's gotta be.
Maybe our stars were paralleled, so close but never meant to be.

Maybe in an alternate universe we are really not meant for each other.

And maybe, all my maybe weren't maybe at all.

(v.a.)
