Almost
(Part One)
Almost
is a four letter word
like flit or snit or twit but
what it means
(p)lays beside you in bed
and stays the night
Almost
sounds like a
slow and lingering ((fuck))
whose suspended state of longing
has grown arms in anticipation
Almost
leaves you petrified
inside )out( in
perplexing liquid limbo
leaving four letter words
your only way (out)
Almost
-wraps-itself-
around-you-until-
it-binds-you-to-it-
leaving-you-
nowhere-
to-go-
but-
in
