five times five
plus hours of searching
for hiding spots
plus hours of pining like a schoolgirl
to songs you played for me
seven days since
plus hours of listening
to the very muses
inspiring the chemicals
in my brain
to hear you tell me
I'm your dream girl
and I should have known it
148,920 hours
since you touched my hair
or looked at me at all
and today you tell me
you see me every day
and more
I never understood how much that time has mattered
until you
couldn't keep it to yourself
anymore
