I changed it a bit...
I count the hours and the days
I count the minutes,
count the ways.
I count until there is no more
Continue counting,
A silly chore.
When he says he loves me so,
I count the lies
that I do know.
But in all truth I love him back
Truth be forgotten,
for truth I lack.
(Should it be 'a silly chore' or 'a pointless chore' or 'a lackluster chore' or should I say 'my' instead of 'a'?)

If your heart were broken,
you'd be dead.
