Time is a Number's Game

2 relationships
1 marriage
and 5 years have passed
2 coasts
countless jobs
yet we are still here
longing
lingering
wondering
what could be
wishing
waiting
needing 2 see
if you're the one
4 me and if
I'm the one 4 you? 
each day we grow more curious
taking another step forward
you blunt and direct
me shy and slow
both of us needing to quench
the curiousity of
5 years on hold
time is running out
we grow older
hopefully wiser
preparing ourselves
4 the one who just might
be the one 2 sweep us off our feet
so we count the days
the hours
the minutes
until we can close the gap between 3000 miles
closing the gap in our hearts
and souls
cherishing what we had
but perhaps needing more
ending the question
were you the one who almost
got away?

I love everything about this write, Blackberry. Its flow, the number concept, the simplicity, the depth - just everything! Great write - well penned!

God bless, Blackberry!

Blackberry this could not have been written any better. A 3000 mile romance and the search to close the gap on you both. What a ride that will be. I love every line of this piece. Now, if only someone would close the gap on my heart as well. May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, stubborn to a fault, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sad sister, Barbie

Love by the numbers what a concept but so real that it is remarkable.
