Maybe...

Maybe,

we'll go down in a blaze of glory,

or in the silence of time.

Maybe,

there won't be another one,

just a mountainous climb.

Maybe,

I'm tired,

or just disillusioned.

Maybe,

these thoughts of dark despair,

are just simple delusions.

Maybe,

there's a place where these things don't exist.

Where despair, sadness, and loss don't have a name.

But it will also be a place,

where happiness, love, and cheer are unkown just the same.

Then maybe, it's a place that's not that great?

Because nothing that we ever know exists in that place?

There's a word for that place;

It's called There.

But then,

what would Here be called, if Here was There?

Not Awesome.

And then, just maybe,

we would realize how awesome Here truly is. 

After all, these things can only happen Here.
