Not adding up
My math skills are mediocre best
But all these variables in the equation
Make it hard to figure you out
To solve for x
I multiplied
The number of times we talked
By how long the conversations were
I added
The days we spent together
With how often you could make me smile
I divided
The times you said “I love you, I need you”
By how many times I thought you really meant it
I subtracted
The times you left for her
From how much I depended on you
I solved
The feelings I have for you
But yours just didn’t add up
Therefore x equals factoring you out
Please correct me if I’m wrong
You probably just missed a sign or two
But the numbers don’t lie
Our feelings never intersect
