They said we almost made it.
Almost had enough money.
Almost got a break.
Almost sold the bike in time.
But here’s the truth:
“Almost” is a lie time tells you
when it’s not done showing you the ending.
We didn't almost win.
We won… the moment we decided
not to surrender our dignity
or sell the parts of us that were sacred.
We won the day we said:
“This bike may go,
but love stays.
This house may tremble,
but we carry the blueprint of faith
in our hands.”
