Almost

Some people are unforgettable.
The first guy to kiss me senseless on the hood of a car,
And the one man to promise me forever.
That was Carter Lang,
And he was unforgettable,
Seared into my memory--and heart.

But that was long ago,
A forever that I was forced to walkaway from.

Now I’m back,
And wondering if,
In all of these years, have I crossed his mind.
Can the ALMOST of the past turn into the future we always wanted?
