I had an interesting conversation today
It was after I was treated like I didn't exist
Like I didn't matter
I should've broke down at the news
Slam my head on the wall and ask
"Why me?"
But I didn't
Not one tear slipped
I don't feel broken
Just tired
I'm not surprised
I'm disappointed in myself
For believing in someone
That I knew
Had no chance of proving me right
The conversation went on for hours
Debating the big questions in life
"Does love exist?"
-we both found the answer is no
"Why do humans want to feel like we matter?"
-we found many answers to this
And last but not least
"Is the world cruel, or are we just too hopeful?"
-we found no answer here
The point in my talking about this
Is because it's moments like those that make me really think
Maybe what happened was so that you could be brought into my life
Maybe
But I didn't spend long thinking about that
The moment was perfect without the scrutinizing
Outside looking at the stars
Just talking about life
Maybe this chapters ending
Was the best thing that could have happened
Maybe this was the good ending
The ending that made me stronger
Maybe I'm ready to close this book
Just so I can start anew
But who knows
These assumptions
And questions
They all are answered with the same word
Maybe.
