Uncurled:
Maybe, it was never meant to be,
And, the truth will set me free,
Maybe, I tried to damn hard,
And, the past left me scarred,
Maybe, you never believed my words,
And, my cries remained unheard,
Maybe, you could have stayed a while longer,
And, let me help you heal, become stronger,
Maybe, you should have given me a chance,
And, allowed me one last dance,
Maybe, we’d have made it through,
And, I wouldn’t hide my scars with a new tattoo,
Maybe, I’d have given you the world,
And, alone, my dreams became uncurled,
Maybe, I need you to understand,
And, that is, I’m just a broken man,
Maybe, I tried the best I could,
And, in the end, it wasn’t enough…….
Inspired by The Daily Prompt: Maybe
This made me cry😓

To quote Metallica: “Misery
You insist that the weight of the world
Should be on your shoulders
Misery
There’s much more to life than what you see
My friend of misery”

This is a wonderful piece. It’s raw and full of so many emotions, yet doesn’t dwell on all, just a slight brush. But then, it’s powerful even through that. Aah! I love it. I cannot wait to read more.
