Maybe I’m ready.
Maybe it’s time.
Tomorrow I could take a step
And will my limbs to climb.
But how do you make the change
From a Maybe to a Yes?
Maybe I’ll say I’m sorry.
Maybe you’ll say it’s fine.
Or perhaps you’ll say goodbye,
And leave me clutching to the line.
I want to say I love you,
But instead I’ll fade away.
Maybe hearts mend.
Maybe wounds heal.
Maybe it’s time to change,
Though reality seems unreal.
I know I’m no fortune teller,
Because all I see is mist.
Maybe you’ll come find me.
Maybe I’ll let you in.
Your pillow lies shapeless on my bed
And I’m drowning in the din.
A simple button can rewind a disk,
But you and I keep spinning forward.
