"I said maybe,"

You told me "maybe,"
As if this is a game,
Like a tragic comedy
Or Russian Roluet.

It's not:
These are my feelings.

You told me maybe,
In the same voice,
The same context

As, "Oh, maybe I'll bring that book
For you to read tomorrow,"

Or, "Oh, maybe
I can come over your house
This weekend,"

But this isn't like that.

This isn't a "maybe,"
You can just shy away from;
This isn't a "maybe,"
You can neglect and forget;

This is a "maybe,"
About my feelings...

Do you reciprocate?
