Almost


Almost
A life full of almosts isn't a life at all.

The paradise painting, almost, The novel, almost. The game, The grade, The geyser almost.
The basket, almost, The hit, almost.

The word is depressing and leaves one guessing, Wondering what would've happened, what could've been. A life full of almosts isn't a life at all.

The jackpot, almost, The finish line, almost. The car, The plane, The train, almost.
The person, The like, The love almost.

A life full of almosts isn't a life at all. The poem, almos
