He was a puzzle
I could never quite put together
just when I thought I had
the comfort of having him
I was missing a piece
no matter how much
I tried to show him
the love I had
It was his way of having me
but keeping me at a safe distance
almost having him
but not quite
I think that's the worst way
to have someone
an almost
because you were right
at the finish line
moments away from
finally having it all
for it to be ripped away
stuck between
what if's and maybe's
like you never had it at all
