Maybe

maybe today
it will happen
you will come over
gaze into my eyes
and realize
that there is nothing wrong
with your feelings
maybe absence
led to introspection
you missed my smile
laughter and quirks
and never
want to be without them
in your life
maybe love
will triumph
like in the stories
that are spun about
and cherished
by dreamers like me
who still believe
maybe truth
will finally make
an appearance
between us
and you
will admit what
I have always known
maybe today
