Im Counting...

I'm counting how many times I've made mistakes
I'm counting how many times I learn from them
Mistakes mean nothing to you
But mean everything to me

I'm counting how many days I have left to live
I'm counting how many times I live my life full.
I don't need to worry
My life is fine
Thats only what you think

I'm counting how many poems I write
I'm counting how many stories I've finished
I've finished many
But I haven't finished the most important one
But you think I've finished it already.

I'm counting how many feelings I've hurt
I'm counting how many hearts I've broken
It is a small amount
But it is still is a big deal.

I'm counting how many people I've liked
I'm counting how many people I've loved
I have liked many
But I didn't love anyone as much as I loved you.

I'm counting how many times I've cried
I'm counting how many times I've laughed
I've cried 0 times
But laughed one million

I'm counting how many people there are in the world
But only one, out of 6.5 billion
Had the chance to have my heart.
