Almost vs Always

Impactful are the words always and almost, we can feel the inherent concept of each,

A prelude to our deeds and efforts, they have the depth to manifest or to breach 

The connotation of one is favorable, an optimistic intention likened to forever, 

The other casts a dim light, that one has failed or missed the mark on some intended endeavor

But in our lives things can get quite blurred, all is not necessarily what it would seem,

On this stage of life, it is not always crystal clear, who will really take one for the team
