Toxic

It's been 477,360,000 seconds... It's been 7,956,000 minutes... It's been 132,600 hours... It's been 5,525 days... It's been 789 weeks and 2 days... Since I actually met you. And, no matter our ups and downs, I could never regret you. And, no matter your misplaced faith, if you have to leave, I could never forget you. You'd be taking a piece of me, leaving my heart in debt too. But still... In 5,525 days, I've probably been disrespected by you, in 5,525 ways. And, I've probably spent 132,600 hours, getting the side eye, out of your steady gaze. And, crying my eyes out, on your more shady days. I've probably spent 7,956,000 minutes, being betrayed by you, in ways that would amaze. Mannnnn, 477,360,000 seconds, is a l....o....n....g time, for it to take me, to discover your... back biting ways. Even so, I wouldn't change the fact, that I carried you! Yes! I carried you! for roughly 280 days! And, I've waited 789 weeks and 2 days, for you to pass the crazy "phase". As I try to love you.
