𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗔𝗥𝗬 | My Almost Reality, Lost in Our Never

You were never supposed to stay.
Yet I let you come too close—
as if permanence could be borrowed,
as if love wouldn’t notice
that I was still unfinished.

You arrived softly and quietly,
as if you already belonged
in the broken spaces within me
that I never learned how to fix.

And you loved me—
you loved me as if I were whole,
as if I wasn’t still learning
how to breathe without falling apart,
how to exist
without someone holding me together.

I should have known better.

Because for a moment,
I almost believed it—
that what we had
was becoming real,
that I had finally found
the kind of love
I used to pray for
in silence.

But it wasn’t real.
Not because of you,
but because of me.

I was still unfinished—
still searching for myself
through borrowed affection,
still confusing being held
with being healed,
still letting someone else
carry what I was supposed to learn
to carry alone.

So I let you slip away.

Not because you failed me,
but because I failed to stay
when I finally found something
worth staying for.

I called it freedom,
but it was fear—
fear of being loved
while still not knowing
how to love myself in return.

And that hurts the most.

Because you were never the mistake.
I was.

You were my almost reality—
so close to forever
that I could feel it in my hands.
Yet I let it slip through,
as if I didn’t deserve to keep it.

And I was your almost person—
the one who could love you,
but not enough to choose you
when it mattered most.

Now all I have left
is the silence I created,
the echo of what I destroyed
through uncertainty,
through fear,
through being me.

And I replay it all—
wondering how it felt for you
to be almost loved
by someone
who never learned how to stay.

And in the end,
there’s no one left to blame but me.

I was the one who let go—
not because you weren’t enough,
but because I wasn’t ready
to hold something real
while still learning
how to hold myself together.

You stayed gentle even as I left,
as if you understood me
more than I understood myself.

And now all I have left
is a truth I can’t undo—
that I lost you
by choosing fear over love,
silence over staying.

I was my own ending.
I was the reason
it never began.

And that’s why you were my almost reality—
because I wasn’t ready
to turn you into my clarity.
