Numbers
All my life,
I've seen numbers.
Everything is a number,
Everything is a digit.
Time is a number of relativity.
Space is a number of distance.
All things are numbers.
Emotions are numbers, too.
On a scale of 1 to 10,
How would you rate your pain,
Your anger,
Your happiness,
Your sadness.
Everything in my life has been based on numbers,
How many of these can I get done in this number of time,
How fast can I cover the distance from A to B,
Numbers,
How bad do I feel,
How happy am I,
How sad am I,
Numbers.
My life was full of numbers,
Digits,
Binary,
All things around me,
I thought was only science, math, and technology.
Yet I found one thing I couldn't put on a scale.
Joy of another's prescence,
Yet pain in the face of them as well.
I found love can't be categorized as a number.
Love is a mix of feelings.
It's pain, happiness, sadness, frustration, confusion, and joy.
All of those before could be rated,
But how,
In what way,
Can one equate all at once as a general number?
The average is irrational,
The median,
The sum,
The difference,
All of it.
Numbers were my life,
Numbers were all I knew,
But now,
I know something new.
