numbers

there are 26 letters in the alphabet 

but i haven't found the right arrangement yet

to describe what's going on
to find out what I want

there are 7 days in a whole week
but not enough time to hear me speak
about what this is
about that kiss

there are 24 hours in each day
million times God's heard me pray
for another you
one better and true

there are 12 months in the year
pillows stained with my tears
as I cry out your name
in the familiar game

there are 60 seconds in a minute
only takes about 10 to give in
to your smile

and get lost for a while
