Almost

Thank God for you,
because I learned the meaning
through you.
I almost didn't need
because I had you.

To know true love
is to receive the gift.
But givers take away.
And the given get pissed.
The guidelines for what
no one understands

exist. But the answer
remains a mystery.
We're His eyes that
can't see through the mist.
She's the treat
you must have missed.
