Nearly Missed It

This moment almost escaped me

This excellent opportunity

to poor out my heart and soul

I nearly missed it

this chance to fix it

this feeling of being 

not quite whole

What I mean to say

is that I didn't

let it get away

I've reached out and

seized the day.

I nearly missed it

this chance to fix it

this feeling of being 

not quite whole

almost but not quite

but I held on tight

to use it to my heart's delight
