That's the number

The number I desperately wish for

The miles

Feet

Inches

Between us

But it can never be

Maybe at heart

But what good does that do

If the hearts are broken?

The numbers roll

Higher and higher

Like a balloon taking flight

Until they're infinite

But I still count down the

Hours

Minutes

Seconds

Until I am in your arms

Until they reach

Zero
