You Were Almost Enough

You were almost what I prayed,

A nearly love, a half-lit fame

You gave me moments that felt true,

Then left me doubting all of you.

 

Almost enough can hurt the most,

It gives the heart a fragile ghost.

It lets you taste what could have been,

Then leaves you standing outside again.

 

Now I want love that does not blur,

A heart that's sure, a voice that's heard.

You were almost enough, I know-

But almost means I had to go.
