What I Said

I meant what I said when I said it.
I don’t know if I would have meant it now,
if you heard it then,
or how you’d hear it now.
Maybe things would have been different.
Maybe things could have been different.
Maybe we wouldn’t have been,
maybe we would have been,
different together,
but it happened at that moment,
between you and me,
and it would have been different
at any other moment
between you and me.
If we met at a different time
Or different circumstances
We might have been friends
lovers,
enemies.
We might have understood each other
If circumstances were different.
But I said what I said when I said it
And I meant it, back then.
I don’t know if I would mean it now.
It’s different now.
We are different now.
I don’t know how I’ll feel
if I see you again
I don’t know if us being different
will change what I said,
if I can go back and say it again, differently.
But I meant it then,
and maybe I’d mean it now,
or maybe it would mean, or you would mean
something different to me, now
and maybe, just maybe
I’d say something different
today,
if I were to see you again.
