24 hours to make a day
16 to finish painting a room
10 to download movies
8 since the sun came up
5 since he left the house
3 hours of sleep that I got today
1 that I’ve been awake
40 minutes for a cake to bake
Half an hour to hang out clothes
15 minutes spent in the shower
10 for nail polish to fully dry
2 minutes for an egg to cook
40 seconds to reheat last night’s food
20 to make a drink
and a second to break my heart
that’s all it took.
one second.
one person.
one line.
