And Maybe, Just Maybe

I’m scared you’d make me happy that you’d make me smile at the thought. That when I’m around you, you’d make me laugh so hard that I’d forget all that’s wrong with the world. That maybe, just maybe you love to see me joyful you love to see me carefree That maybe you want to run alongside me Run through meadows and under the full moon And take my hand because it’s cold and yours is warm That maybe my monumental expectations intrigues you And you are up for the challenge I’m scared that I’d get addicted to your persona That it’s as ambitious, playful and sincere as the day is young. That maybe my path and yours have overlapped in this moment And that maybe the entire universe foresaw and conspired for our energies to collide That somehow you’d begin my sentences And educate me in esoteric ways That perhaps it’s okay for the sky and the earth to kiss one another and have gratitude fill each night, each day That in this matrix, you look at me You read me, you see me You know my soul You know my truth And maybe Just maybe It melts You
