Perhaps

Perhaps.
A dangerous word
Where everything that could be,
Though may never,
Weave in intertwining infinities

Perhaps.
A solemn word
Whispered quietly,
When we reflect back,
And think of what could be now
But isn't

Perhaps.
A hopeful word
Full of endless possibilities,
Of hope and light,
Of all that could be
And still might

Perhaps.
A dangerous word
When we search for its light
We must remember
It is a two sided coin
That is costly to gamble with.

Perhaps
We regret the past

Perhaps
We analyze the present

Perhaps
We will save the future

.....or perhaps not.
