Time

The only one,

The perfect two,

The number three,

The one for you,

Her five sayings,

His six different meanings,

For the seventh billion time, I love you,

The eight dollars,

The nine lost,

The ten days,

The elven wounds, 

The twelve healed,

Her thirteen tries,

His fourteen,

The fifthteenth time, 

They were sixteen when they met,

The number seventeen doesn't matter,

Because they're eighteen now,

At nineteen where are they going to go,

Twenty bucks and still the luck,

At twenty-one all the liquors gone,

The number twenty-two is lucky,

They'll make it to twenty-three hopefully,

Words matter, but so do numbers
