The best thing about your poems is that they are never written for no purpose, I doubt you'd ever write a poem that does not hold a message or a moral or a sentiment that provokes the reader's thoughts!
Your question opening the poem held curiosity in my mind as well, the option you've suggested but didn't pen it down as an absolute choice, using the word perhaps reflecting uncertainty.
Thr 2nd stanza was more mysterious, I'm still wondering about the last line, it wass powerful and expected, I have a lot of thoughts mixed and fighting as which meaning to take or option to believe is my right choice, and to that I give you credit!
