THE ALMOST

Today, I met you
I was amazed on how easy was it
We walked, we don't know where we're going
But we walked anyway
We talked, we don't know what to say next
But we talked anyway
Today, I met you.

Today, I met you
We held hands, not knowing why
But we held hands anyway
We walked, we know where we're going
But we're unsure if it's the right path
Today, I met you.

Today, I met you
Talked about the future
Talked about the interests we both have
Talked about the silly things
And today, I knew you.

Today, I knew you
You liked that peanut butter so much
You wake up early in the morning
At least earlier than I do
You go home late
Because you just hate everyone in there
And today, I knew you.

Today, I knew you
You don't like it when I don't change clothes for three days
You don't like it when somebody blames you for something you did not do
You don't like it when people don't respect you for you
And today, I knew you.

Today, I lost you
Just how easy I had you
I knew you
But I did not know this would happen
I thought I can be the game-changer
I thought you would not leave
I thought I will not lose you
But today, I lost you.

Today, I lost you
And today, I cry for the memories
For the what could have been's
For the what-if's
For the if-ever's
For the almost
The almost us
The almost you
The almost me
Because today, I lost you

Funny how I lost you
When I almost had you at the beginning
But then again today, I lost you.
