Count
Count the seconds you hold your breath when her name is mentioned
Count the seconds between i love you and i want to leave
Count the seconds from when the tub filled up to when your brain began to go fuzzy
Count the seconds until you forget what number even comes after one
Count the seconds until they shift into hours or days or years of wasted time
Count the seconds until you run out of time left to count
Count
Because it's the only thing you have left anymore
