If these moments were my last
And tomorrow never came
for you and me...
Would I truly know how you felt?
If you walked through the door
And found that I was gone
like sand through your fingers...
...you thought you had a hold on me...
But where did I go?
Would you regret the truth
that
I didn't know how much you cared?
Maybe so,
Maybe not

Was not making it home,
not calling, not thinking
Really
worth it?
Maybe so,
Maybe not

What if those phone calls you missed,
ignored...
Were to be the
last words you would ever hear?
Maybe if you would have answered the phone...
walked through the door...
The tears that blinded my view from that oncoming truck
would not have been there.
or
my bags would still be un-packed...
and in the closet collecting dust.
Maybe so,
Maybe not.

Please take a moment
Mean what you say
Say what you mean
And think about tomorrow
Do you see me there?
Maybe so,
Maybe not.

I'm feeling pretty dark tonight- And I'm not usually a dark writer, so this was kind of odd for me. I hope you enjoy....or atleast tolerate it!

Very well understood but I also understand that the he or she who is disregardful will one day "understand" - there's no maybe about it - but it's perhaps for another place and time and all we can do is be patient.

Well presented

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.
