Maybe
Oct 22, 2022
maybe she likes surprises best
because a break in the predictable
made her feel alive again
maybe tomorrow held a secret
one that required a promise
to never tell another soul
maybe he’d speak in song
and rid of all meaningless talk
simply no time to waste down here
maybe the rain would come
to soak these tireless fears
and remind the living
“you know, you’re not dead.”
