Something I never really achieved, never really amounted to. It’s not like a failure, not completely. Everyone is an Almost. We walk around with these grand non-achievements and barite ourselves for their lack of substance, but if we stopped to think – just for one moment – we’d realise that we were never Almosts to begin with.
Jessica
Here we are, walking in tandem; one of us shuffles forward, so does the other. One steps back, the other steps back. Like mirrors. I can’t tell who moves first. For a heartbeat I almost tricked myself into thinking we were twins.
i’m almost there. i feel like the end of this time is coming. i feel like i can move on…almost. but almost is so cruel. it’s like a trick. there’s nothing guaranteed, but a lot of hope that rests in almost.
not really there at all. More or less a failure really, I guess not though. You’ve not really achieved the goal so it can’t be called achievement. Something not quite accomplished.
Jessica
it’s almost time for me to stop writing. It’s almost time for me to become a sophomore. It’s almost the end of my “required” schooling. I can’t believe it. I’m gonna be a sophomore. & then I’ll be a junior. Then a senior. Soon enough, I’ll be having kids & my kids will be in high school. Life passes by way too fast. Oh my gosh. I’m gonna die.
Phoebe
it was almost time. almost time to face her fears. she stood on the stage, looking out at the bright lights that shone brightly on the stage. a piano sat there next to her. she knew that out there were a panel of judges ready to decide her fate and future. quickly, she sat down, cracked her knuckles, and began. the music flowed out of the grand piano and filled the concert hall with glorious sounds of faith and love
Katherine Rooney
I almost went back on the bike today. I wanted to so baldly, but my head is still spinning from that fall on Thursday. I tried to make it look like Bella had tripped me up, so I laughed, spead out on the ice, head throbbing, the world spinning.
Heather
almost nothing was done that day and every man was for himself.
Miguel
I am almost done with his paper. Almost. But instead I am stumbling. Stumbling on what to say. How to go from almost to compleate. I am stumbling on how to compleate what i have almost finished.
rachel
It was so close to perfect, a goal seemingly simple to reach. And once she reached it, she would reach perfection. A seemingly simple thing to do. Almost. Almost good enough, almost perfect, but not quite. Almost
Charlie
if it was any closer he couldve tasted it. we were all too far gone to remember how close we really were, after ten minutes i was done, we were all on our a one way train to fucking hell. there it was, right in front of us, so close, so close and so fucking far away, and then he said it. as if the silence wasnt enough he had to say it, and he said loud.
s.jrdn
I almost loved you. We were almost perfect. We almost had it.
but we lost it
I almost was happy. You always made me smile
I almost miss you
but thats over now.
Tina
Almost at you.
Almost.
God, you’re beautiful.
So goddamn beautiful, it hurts.
Oh, I want you.
I do. So bad.
I’m almost there, but then…
It’s not right.
Not fair.
I’m wrong to love you.
Can I stop?
Almost.
Almost is one of those words that can leave a scar. How
often does it convey a sense of incompleteness.
Bart
I’m almost there, she yelled. He didn’t hear her. He never did. She could scream, yell, cry or kick – the words were always useless. He wasn’t to blame. She never knew why he didn’t listen, why he never responded. But the words were too painful for her to scream, and sometimes she just broke down into tears after her throat had gone dry.
ayesha
almost always i wake up early in the morning and drink my coffee and start my day by watching some tv, doing some homework, or reading a book. and almost always that satisfys me. almost always do i text him in the morning and almost always does he text me back.
valane
Almost.
We’re almost there. But we probably never will be.
I almost love you, you almost love me.
But I really love you more than anything, really.
Almost.
We’re almost there.
i almost got there
but then you stopped me
you stood in my way
let me get to where i need to go.
you are almost there
but i deter you
don’t let me get in the way
don’t let anyone get in your way
you are almost there
we are almost there…
almost motivates me. it’s knowing that you’re so close to something that gives you that final push. i love almost.
Emily
i almost turned my head at that moment, when you moved towards my face to kiss my cheek, in some sort of weird, sweetly formal movement. I regret the shyness that seized me then more than I think you know.
Stephanie
i almost wish he was the only one in my life, he means that much to me, it breaks my heart when he leaves, i want to marry him and spend my life with him. i also want to have his kids but fear i may be infertile.
ciara
Almost. I almost had him. I could be with him right now,but I’m not. He has someone else now and I don’t. Almost is not good enough
Fitz
I almost texted you.
I almost told you I like you.
I almost followed my dreams.
I almost did something to make myself happy.
I almost let my really feelings out….
i’m almost there. are we almost there? long car rides to the beach around 6 hours, but sometimes shorter if dad’s driving. but he got a speeding ticket 3 times, from the same cop, in alabama. it was pretty funny.
almost, but not quite. not good enough. just short of perfect.
Shadow
I almost saved her. Now she was lying in my arms. Almost alive, almost dead. But never nearly mine.
I almost had it. Why is it that just as I am about to put that sucker in my mouth, mama nature takes her skinny fingers and yanks it right from my bare hands. I have been a good kid, I deserve something. I want my my sucker.
Mo
I almost texted to.
I almost followed my dreams last year.
I almost told you I like you.
I almost did something to make myself happy.
Stephanie Denis
i almost had you. you were in the palm of my hands and i was turning you into something that I loved. I had you I had you and I almost made you mine and then everything got messed up. God I loved you so much. I still do sometimes. I think I love the idea of you more than I actually love you. it kills me though, that I almost had you. I was so god damn close I could feel it. almosts are the worst. almosts are heartbreaking and I don’t like heartbreaking.
freesia
And then again I almost had it. The thread of the idea was just ahead of me like a mirage. If my fingers would just go faster, as fast as my brain, I could catch up and overtake it.
It was almost time to go when I remembered I had forgotten my purse. I walked back into my hotel room and something inside me made me stop and look around. I don’t know what it was, a premonition of sorts. But that brief hesitation changed the rest of my life…
She was still, silent. The water fell from the cliff and pooled at her feet. She looked up at me, hair dipping with remorse. I went to her, immediately. her hands her cold. her face, blank. I didn’t know what to say, and so I didn’t say a thing.
So close, you can almost taste it. There is nothing stopping you but yourself. You are only holding yourself back. It is within your reach, your grasp, and yet, you can’t completely reach it. It’s not that your arm isn’t long enough, but you simply have no faith in yourself to grab it.
Odette
I almost did what i wanted but I gave in again. Why is it that almost never seems to make it to always or finished. It never goes anywhere. Almost is one of the unfulfilled words of the English language. It’s like the combination of What and If but it makes the loss to much to bear, because it almost wasn’t a What If. I t could have been a reality.
gdrajem
Almost there, only a few more minutes, my dear, until this dry, aching loneliness will leave forever. But until then, just wait as patiently as you can. Until then, dry your tears, smear a smile on your face and face the world with an empty heart and empty hand.
Emma
almost is such a crazy word. It runs through my mind about fifty times a day. i’m almost there. i’m almost doing it. there’s a great Princess and the Frog song called Almost There, have you heard it before? I think it’s amazing. but apparently Disney isn’t making any more heroine songs, it’s such a shame. They have so many ones left to do! Like the princess and the pea. Wouldn’t you like to see the princess and the pea?
Lana
i was almost there, and then she walked in. a hand in her pocket and a grin on her face. i knew it was all over. i could feel my fingers trembling, my brow sprinkled with sweat. a bird was in the window. it was snowing outside, a blizzard. and then, nothing.
Julia Sanders
I almost felt lost. But caught myself….caught myself falling deep into a hole. I now am taking the steps to happiness and can almost feel the warmth that is heading my way!! :)
heather Thomas
im almost there. Don’t read to fast. Keep your head high, I know you, the beginning is the end. first place, detention intertwine, communicate with me why don’t you.forever and a day isn’t here yet?
Tammy
Almost. He almost kissed me. I almost died. We almost did it. The world is full of Almost. But there never is a satisfying ending to that word. Never something that hits your heart happy. Simply…….almost.
Dakota
almost there,i’m almost there but i dont know that i will ever get there
