Maybe... It was worth it

Posted by Lissette Martinez

Maybe I'm going to age very quickly.
But I will fight  to make each day worth it.

I May suffer many disappointments in the course of my life.
But they will lose their importance next to the acts of love I found.

I may not have the strength to realize all my ideas.
But I will never consider it a defeat.

Maybe at some point I will suffer a terrible fall.
But I will not stay on the floor for long.

Maybe one day the sun stops shining.
But then I'll go to bathe in the rain.

Maybe one day I will suffer some injustice.
But I'll never assume the role of the victim.

Maybe I have to face some enemies.
But I will have the humility to accept the hands that reached out to me.

Maybe one of those cold nights I shed many tears.
But I'll never be embarrassed by this gesture.

Maybe I will be deceived many times.
But I will not stop believing that someone somewhere deserves my trust.

Perhaps in time, I will realize that I made many mistakes.
But I will not stop moving further down my path.

Perhaps with the passing of the years I lost good friends.
But I learned that those who are my true friends will never be lost.

Maybe some people want to harm me.
But I will continue planting the seeds of brotherhood anywhere I go.

Maybe I'll be sad to see that I do not keep pace with the music.
But then the music will follow the rhythm of my steps.

Maybe I never get to see a rainbow.
But I will learn to design one even in my heart.

Maybe today I feel weak.
But tomorrow I will re start in a different way.

Maybe I will never learn all the necessary lessons.
But I have the consciousness that the true teachings and are engraved in me.

Maybe I was depressed for not knowing the lyrics of that song.
But I'll be happy with that; if I have other capabilities.

I may not have reasons for large celebrations.
But I will certainly rejoice with the great conquests.

Perhaps the willingness to give up everything will  become my partner.
But instead of fleeing, will run after what I want.

I may not be exactly who I want to be.
But I learn to admire who I am.

Because in the end I know that, in addition to countless questions, I can build a better life. And if I'm still not convinced; its because I believe in the saying "I have not yet reached the end."

Because in the end there will be no "maybe" but  the certainty that my life was worth it and I did the best I could. "
