Maybe

Maybe you were right,
Maybe I really am the mean one.
Maybe it is my fault,
Maybe I was always the bitch.
Maybe I am the annoying one,
Or even the one who screwed this whole thing up in the first place.
Maybe I am everything you say I am.

But what if I wasn’t?
And maybe I’m not.
What if you were wrong?
What if I was never the mean one?
Or the bitch?
What if I wasn’t anything that people say I am?

What if I was nothing more than
Me?

But to you,
I’ll always be someone else.
The someone that they’ve created,
And claim is me.
So maybe now you’re the wrong ones.

Maybe.
