Honestly,

Almost is the saddest word

I have ever heard.

We almost kissed.

We almost made it.

She almost passed.

They almost lived.

He almost loved her.

I almost had it.

We almost won.

You see,

Almost means close,

But not succeeding.

Is there ever a close enough?

Or is almost our forever?

 

(A.D.)

Almost is a very sad word indeed. I hope some of you will understand this. Others, they may not see a point. But those who do, I'm sorry it's always almost.

@BvbFanGirl My main point when I was writing this was to show others how I feel, and the same with all of my work. But this one was different, saddening. I almost cried.
