NOTE: Naruto's POV.
Count the Days
I count the days till our next meeting,
Willing time to pass.
I count the hours till we meet,
Hoping that I'll last.
Day one comes first
And I'm still strong.
Hurry back,
I can't wait long.
Days four and five
Just flew right by.
Hurry back,
Or please just try.
Day fourteen:
Is something wrong?
It's getting harder
To stay strong.
Day nineteen:
The thunder's sounding.
I wake up to the
Sound of pounding.
I jump from bed,
My heart does soar.
I rush to meet you
At the door.
It's not you standing in the rain.
I listen as the man explains.
"I'm sorry, but this news is bad."
I'd lost the only one I had.
Day twenty-two:
Nice tie. Nice shirt.
I see your face;
I'm filled with hurt.
The crowd around me, wearing black.
I looked into the sky;
It started crying with me
As I sadly said good-bye.
