Nine

Nine Months Not nine and a half Still hurting Broken heart Nine Weeks Not nine and a half Too old for that Too old by half Nine Days Not nine and a half Still counting I know it's daft Nine Minutes Not nine and a half Tears flowed To, fro and aft Nine seconds Not nine and a half Writing these words And now its past.
