Perhaps
it might
come true

if not
never mind
the thought

for life
is non-committal
uncertainty fraught

all around is heard
this proclamation:
I've bravely fought

but nothing
could be claimed
rewards unwrought

yet none should fear
the illusive perhaps
with passions strong and hot

amidst such fragility
and indifference
of our human lot

like Ulysses we'll sail
in faith unfettered- in unknown waters
even to the furthest and wildest spot.
