i'm always
close
but never
close enough.

i'm always
right there
right at the finish line
but never cross

almost is a sad word
she almost made it
they almost lived
he almost got away.

i'm an almost kind of girl.

i'm almost skinny
almost pretty
almost talented
almost good enough

but almost
will never be enough
for people
who demand everything
