So close, I almost did taste it.

So close, I thought I'd make it.

So, so close, I even believed it,

For a second,

But, still, I did

And it felt, oh, so real.

Surreal.

The bittersweet feeling,

The tears fall like rain on my pillow.

My smile fells unnatural, 

My longings unspoken,

for if I say them out loud

I will watch as they get taken from my hands.

So close, but I guess it wasn't the right moment.

So close, but I put my trust in God,

and His plan.

So close.

So close.

So close.
