Maybe

by Kimberly Day   Aug 16, 2004


This is the window to my heart,
If I make the choice that's on my mind,
I'll be the one tearing my heart apart.
Please understand you're not to blame,
For all the tears I've cried.
Maybe my heart is something that can't be tamed.
So many thoughts racing through my head.
Should I stay?
Or perhaps I should leave instead.
We've made many mistakes.
Perhaps our love has begun to fray?
Maybe I should end this,
For both our sakes.

Maybe I should just end us,
Say goodbye one last time.
It would end all this fuss.
I'm sick of always paying for my past crimes.
I'll always love you,
This much will always be true.
But honestly will you always love me too?
Maybe that's what we need,
A little bruising and a little bleeding,
Some space that we can breathe in.
Some separate times in between.

This is the window to my heart,
Although it'll be my choice.
I'm scared of the pain I'll feel if I choose to rip us apart.
I just want you to feel free,
If only you could see.
You make me feel so vulnerable,
I'm scared of the feelings to stir inside of me.
How can a harsh or sad word from you,
Shatter my heart into more pieces than two?
You make me feel so helpless.
God I wish I could please you.

Maybe I should just take my leave.
It can't be healthy to wear my heart on my sleeve.
I'm scared and can't explain why.
Why is it all I so is sigh or cry?
I'm so confused too,
The only thing I'm sure of anymore,
Is I love you!
But is love supposed to make my heart so sore?
I'm so torn!
Should I choose to walk down this road with you?
I should I choose to walk down it alone?
