Maybe


Maybe
there were words
I should have
told you
like need
and love
fulfill and lifetime

Maybe
I had to
say them
a few
thousand times
to myself
before I could
ever say them
out loud
to you

Maybe
I was
fooling myself
all along
thinking they
had no part
of me
then I
found them
tattooed on
my heart

Maybe
with all
the chances
I ever took
it isn’t
too late now
to feel
to say
to shout
to whisper

Maybe
just maybe….

Helen,
I'm thinking the odds are better than a maybe. I really like this. Nice job.

It's never too late to have a good childhood! Woohoo!

Helen - maybe you're right!! Enjoyed. Chris

May love and light always shine upon you!
