Countdown

Countdown

A Poem by Faladah

From a thousand trees
came nine hundred tears.
When they broke down
and I smoked their ashes.


From seven hundred nights                   
I kept remembering one.
The one with six hundred tears
fallen from my eyelashes


For five hundred days
I kept waiting here alone
with only four hundred words
from which I remembered one


After three hundred hours
I took two hundred pills
who were removed by ten,
and left me to be a no one.


And when hundred came,
I forgot to count further.
Because night's where longer,
then a million days in the sun.


But I remember the feeling
your looks and your smile
and after days of counting,
you're still the only one.
