Maybe

Maybe after reading this you'll understand, M'dear.
You weren't there when I needed a helping hand,
When things weren't going as planned.
I was always right there by your side,
Together, we took our pain in stride.
Maybe I should blame you, But I don't.

Please, just listen to this carefully worded plea.
Perhaps, you'll find your trust.
There is no need to be fussed,

I realize now it was my mistake,
I waited for someone to soothe my every ache.
I know now it was foolish,
Albeit, you were selfish.

I've decided to follow my own advice
I won't be afraid of anything,
I won't let anyone hold me back,
I won't regret the choices I make.
I won't wait for people to accept me,
I won't wait for someone to allow me to be who I am.
I will chase my dreams.
I will be all that I can be.
I will live each day to the fullest,

Maybe, I'll inspire you to do the same.
Maybe, I'll inspire you to forget your pain.
Maybe ...
