Almost

Almost.

Maybe this word was from the Underworld. Maybe Hades invented it, himself. It's the evilest word existing.

So close to something...yet, still out of reach.

Just one more step...

One last step...

Yet, he looked back.

Do I hate him for that?

No, in fact, I love him more.

When he glanced back to make sure I was there...I realized how he unutterably longed for me.

Almost....yet too soon...yet no regrets.
