Poem
WE ALMOST –IT’S JUST ALMOST We fail to draw the line between facts and fairytales We fight with our backs against the wall-wars of life We hope for the hopeless that they will meet our needs We stand for true cause that cause us to conform to discomfort We almost won the war, it’s just almost, it never happened We almost went to heaven-instead we ended up in hell We almost got saved, yet died as a sinner, hope to make it We speak of the unseen into existence, I lost faith, i almost got it We walk with our faith in our pockets, hoping for almost We almost won the battle, it’s just almost, it never happened We almost got married-claiming what is was not yours We almost died if it was not for him; it was just not your day We almost got paid for our iniquities, yet he paid for us We were lost but found; we almost lost optimism, almost We almost won the fight, it’s just almost, it never happened We wish all we dreamt could come to pass-almost got it We wish wishes, wish we couldn’t have wished, it was just almost We were born out wishes that never became reality, but almost We are eager to finish school; you are almost done, if you don’t fail We almost lost the match, it’s just almost, it never happened We love hard and we break easily wishing the present were the past We hate to love, because our present is the mistake of yesterday We know the past, focusing on the moment, not certain of tomorrow We easily remember the hurtful-hard to remember the good when we are hurt We almost forgot about that-it like you almost forgot you are good person
