Nine Weeks And Five Days

I know we've only known each other for four weeks and three days
But to me
It seems like nine weeks and five days
The first day seemed like a week
And the second day seemed like five days
And the third day seemed like a week again
And the fourth day seemed like eight days
But the fifth day you went to see your mother
And that seemed just like a day
But then you came back
And then later on the sixth day in the evening when we saw each other
That started seeming like two days
So in the evening it seemed like two days spilling over into the next day
And that started seeming like four days
So at the end of the sixth day on in to the seven day it seemed like a total of five days
And the sixth day seemed like a week and half
