Once upon a pain, almost is enough

You once asked me what is the saddest english word for me, giving me options such as death, pain, abandonment, heartache, and even loneliness itself. I couldn't think of an answer at that moment because I don't really think about those kind of things, and it never really crossed my mind. But years passed, I do have an answer now–"almost". It's the saddest english word for me. Because we almost loved. I almost had you. You almost loved me. But we reached that point the word almost and its meaning could never ever have– an ending. And darling, almost is enough. Sometimes the saddest things for us, aren't the one we're most regretful of.
