Almost

As if almost wasn’t good enough.
As if I wasn’t good enough.
I loved you like the moon loves the stars,
Like the sun loves the earth so much that

It brings light into its darkest days.
I couldn’t help but wonder if you
Finally saw the broken pieces of my soul
That I so desperately tried to keep hidden.

That somehow the darkest parts of me
Weren’t what you were looking for,
That somehow I was the problem.
But baby I was in this for the long run.

I knew that I wasn’t perfect but I loved who I was.
I knew that this was going to be difficult
And I was prepared to love every part of you,
Including the darkest parts.

Because how can you truly love someone
Without knowing who they really are,
Without knowing that things may get hard,
Without knowing anything.

How can you love when you don’t let the
Demons come out and play once in a while?
We let this love fall apart because almost loving
Is the worst way to love someone.
