There are 2,228,800 seconds in one lifetime
Each containing countless possibilities
You were one possibility
You are my possibility
Why do I love you?
Out of all those seconds
My time was due
Just like the stars, we'll dissolve into a thousand ashes
Pieces staying behind for all eternity
Just like the stars, we hold the light
The light for which only shines to seem like a mere second
That light is ours
In fifteen minutes you can get out of bed.
In fifteen minutes you can eat breakfast and brush your teeth.
