Maybe

by bOtOi

Maybe I shouldn’t have said the things I did
Maybe I should
Maybe you were hurt by those words
Maybe I have been hurt enough
Maybe, I thought, you should know…

Maybe it’s our ignorance
Maybe it’s disappointment
Maybe it’s frustration
Maybe it’s plain misunderstanding
And maybe, our conversations were silent

Maybe I haven’t shared enough with you
Maybe I needed time to trust you completely
Maybe I just needed your company sometimes
Maybe I just needed your silence at times…
And maybe, you just didn’t understand

Maybe our perception of friends is different
Maybe we belong to different groups of friends
Maybe I have expected too much
Maybe you couldn’t give just that much I asked for
Or maybe, our friendship isn’t significant enough

Maybe I am just tired of giving
Maybe you are just unaware of it
Maybe you have tried
Maybe I wasn’t aware of it too
Or maybe, we both need a break

Maybe our hectic world conquered us
Maybe we forgot to set our boundaries
Maybe we were too absorbed in this carousel
Maybe our length of acquaintance was not enough
Or maybe, our friendship blossomed too fast

Maybe you think you know me well
Maybe you don’t even know me
Maybe I assumed too much
Maybe I have my part to blame
And maybe, we both ought to learn and appreciate our beautiful friendship…
