Letter to almost lover

Dear Almost lover,
Time just wasn't on our side. It was like an hourglass was tipped on its ends just so we can spend a moment together than flipped backed when we seemed content.
Then time somehow sped up, just because we were happy together
Convincing himself that nothing last forever
You were like a broken chain and I wanted to be your link
But I ended up being plumber trying to fix your sink
As in I was just there temporarily trying to fix a damaged product
Once I was done I left as if the job was completed
Energy depleted, mind defeated, I wanted to come back even when I wasn't needed
And when I met you I knew something was gonna spark
But instead of it being our hearts it ended up being our smarts
Our brains intertwined but blows to our hearts were dealt
I'd never take back the feelings that I felt.
I thought you were moon and I was tide you pulled in from your gravity
Then you instantly became important to me
My actions did  things that my heart wasn't prepared to do
I became overwhelmed with the thought of you
I worshipped  you in my mind and treated you as if you were last hope of love in my fantasy
I put you on a pedestal but time knocked you down in my dreams  
I used to think you were that last piece of cake that nobody wanted to have
Not because it was nasty but because they were scared  that the tasty moment wouldn't last
I know your friends didn't think I was the greatest guy for you
Although I couldn't prove them wrong I wouldn't have wanted to
Because my job wasn't to impress or to brag
It was to show you how much love my heart had
But as we grew closer mentally, physically we became more apart
What's left unspoken will leave love wounds like cupids dart
I crazily, happily And respectfully interrupted the moments we shared
but everlasting love is more like a fairytale
I had to let my love go because it would've ended in pain
And I've had my share of that and will not do it again
Although it was a memory it will not be forgotten.
I used to think you were like heaven trying to get a little taste of hell but God didn't want you to get a taste so he kept you up there
But if I could I would build a time machine just so I can go back in time to spend the same moments with you again.
You were a stranger, almost lover but now a friend
