ALMOST

some say it's just a word but how can it be when it ruined my life damn... her dad almost loved her her mom almost stopped drinking I never knew what almost meant until I heard someone say he almost made it mom lost herself but in the process of losing her she lost me now almost is a word I could never unsee I was almost important when mom stopped drinking so much but now it doesn't matter she says she is proud of me but it feels like she is almost proud of me can't I just burn the dictionary then maybe almost would be gone and the maybe I could have my parents love oh yeah I forgot father almost made it out alive and mother almost stopped drinking sometimes I wonder is it almost or my fate
