I was happy, when I met you for the first time.

The sun lighting up your skin,

Your smile beautiful as a sin,

And your hair flowing with the wind,

I almost had you,

Almost! When I pushed your body into mine,

And whispered “we were meant for each other”

You almost loved me,

When I lifted you up when you were sad,

When I held your hand, and promised I would stay

We almost fell in love,

We almost had forever,

If only you said yes to us.

And perhaps you did,

For a while.
