Almost

One of the saddest words. When everything is good, but just doesn't mange to be good enough.

This is like when you just cannot sleep 

When you are even too tired to weep 

After the argument you have almost won 

After the things you have almost done 

It is like almost feeling understood 

When you thought nobody ever could

 

It is like almost feeling needed 

When you are being mistreated 

When you see a door is almost closed 

So you can almost go through it 

Thus the next door just almost permit 

Everything was almost disposed 

It is about almost being loved 

When love and irony have almost shoved 

When you're almost in love engrossed 

I am the almost

Honestly, I can really connect with this poem. I love its simplicity, yet it still manages to impart the emotion that every person undergoes at some point in their life. It's not narrowed down to a specific set of circumstances, and the feel of it is almost universal. I like how even people who feel as if their situation is a predicament nobody else would understand can possibly connect to and relate to this poem. Beautiful.

Thank you so much for reading and your lovely review!

I figure it all out, the write's very emotional, but apart from its emotional side. I must consider this poetry one of my favorites. Your rhyme played a good role among it all... with much depths.. to heart. Every line has got its meaning which displays the true emotions brought by the wounds or heartaches. Sometimes, we all need someone with whom we could share the feelings of heart so, sometimes, we seemed eager to be lone all the time. So, I think, your poetry sheds some light on such concepts very well, by the sides of 'emotions', when the heart seems to be lost into its own mazes. Very vivid imagery you've come up with! Excellent work!

Thank you!! I think this was one of the few poems that were most satisfying to write and to read after I was done. For me it is also a very timeless one, because it is mostly about me. Well anyways I am very happy that you can enjoy this one, too:)

You're welcome!! Yes, I just came to know that this write's based upon you. And..quite frankly, I really liked this thing that how insightfully you just emerged yourself with words so deeply. Patricia, whether you like it or not, I have to say, you have very unique visions 'bout such things; your imagery 'bout such things's very good and appreciated as well. So, I'd say, you should keep writing... as long as your heart breathing your love.

Yes well I am very glad I started writing because when I was younger I never thought this could be a thing for me, but appereantly it is and I think it'll accompany me for a long time. Don't worry I'm pretty sure I'll always find something to write about!

[Horizons]

You mentioned, when you "WERE" "Younger". Well, dear ... I think, you 'are' and 'would' always be damn 'Younger' even 'younger' than 'younger' to feed the 'hunger' of heart with pleasure and, of course, with your artistry that you make and bake so tastefully to spirits.

It is about almost being loved
When love and irony have almost shoved
When you're almost in love engrossed

You gave the word "almost" great strength and purpose. Almost is a good word. Being close and so far. A bad place to be. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
