Almost Doesn’t Count

Almost never counted when you started showing who you really were,

Soft sounds turned to broken words, love fading, and never ending disagreements.

Almost never counted when you started showing who you really were, raging emotions, unstable creature.

Why did you hurt me when I never gave you reason?

Did I make you angry? Was I not enough? Did my words make you feel you couldn’t trust?

Forgiven actions should be all proof.

Almost never counted when you started showing who you really were,

Demon In disguise, portraying what you feel to reflect on me,

Shaming myself not realizing it was you needing healing from you.

Almost didn’t count when you showed me who you really were,

A child trying to grow, tearing one person down at a time, one it will work and you will realize it was all a lie.
