Chasing Almosts

You will always be my favourite almost,
Find me searching us on a dreamy coast.
So much remains in my unsaid words,
Even the silence in my head hurts.

Separated by fear of getting close,
What if I loose you in the shadow cosmos?
There will never be a second chance,
This is the reason I am fixated in this trance.

Each step forward is a step to the past, Memories linger, a spell forever cast.
Promises made in the moonlit haze,
Yet, the future's uncertainty stays ablaze.

The sands of time slip through my trembling hands,
An hourglass shattered in faraway desolate lands.
In the alchemy of dreams, illusions unfold,
A paradoxical story, intricately told.

We dwell in the uncertainty of "almost" and "maybe,"
A secret dance on the edge, darling, just maybe.
The delusions go past the boundaries of sea,
Hope whispers secrets, a bond that’s both bound and free.
