I start this first day
Away form my heart
And try to survive
These next seven days apart
I try not to think
To dwell or to brew
But pray for the quick arrival
Of day number two
Second day of my wait
Is much like the first
But thankful to be
Much closer to day three
It’s day number three
And I\'m saddened much more
Please come to me quick
Precious day number four
Four days of this torture
I can barely survive
Please save me from my loneliness
Merciful day number five
Day five you came at last
But my loneliness you did not fix,
I am counting on you
Blessed day number six
The sixth day of my sentence
Finds me discouraged and blue
But thankful that it’s still not day number two
So with patience and hope
I pray up to heaven
And am grateful to god
Tomorrow is day number seven
Day seven comes at last
And I no longer feel weak
And give thanks to the heavens
For hearing the prayer I did speak
So as I hold you again
On this seventh day of our parting
Inside of my heart
I feel the sadness departing
So time is our keeper
And heaven our guide
I would wait an eternity
Just to be by your side.
