Almost...

by Rolo   May 4, 2005


I'm only halfway broken,
just a little gone,
Almost to the brink,
Almost fully drawn

I'm just a little sad
only slightly torn
I only wish sometimes
that I was never born

I almost feel insane
I'm not always lonely
A few people feel like me
I'm not the one and only

I'm somewhat of a quitter
I kinda know what's wrong
I'm not strong enough to deal
I knew that all along...

I'm near the edge of reason
A few steps and I'd be there
A little to the right,
And maybe you would care

I was just about to make it
So close, but I fell short
It was almost meant to be;
My second to last resort

I'm midway through the battle
I'm near the end of going away
I'm almost completely certain
That I'll never be okay

    This was an excellent poem. The only suggestion that I have is that you might change, "I'm not strong enough to deal I knew that all along..." to "I'm not strong enough to deal. I've known that all along." Just a suggestion though. Other than that, this was a very well written poem. Keep it up.
