The 'x' and 'why' of it all

It had been 850 days since I last saw you.
We spent 4 spontaneous days together.
We have been "dating" for 3 whole new days now.
It will be exactly 30 days till I see you again.

The numbers are not kind to us.
I look for a numerical value-
"x" amount of weeks
or even months
till we occupy the same geographical space.

I want uninterrupted weeks
lifetimes even
So many shared kisses we lose count
Hours and days yawning before us
so much opportunity
that time stops being
counted.
