Now that my first puzzle's done and gone it wont be so easy to solve the rest.
I've begun to write with reestablished rules.
If I've not got your attention I'll start trying harder.
So weigh the options and look closely,
It shouldn't be hard for you to tell me what number I'm thinking of...

I originally had the sentences separated like this @dcfyj, but I figured it would make finding the numbers too easy. Not that it slowed down @F1Krazy! – mkinson Feb 08 '17 at 14:17

These are
1 1 2 3 5 8 - the first six numbers of the Fibonacci sequence
So I believe you're thinking of
the next number in the sequence: 13

3I noticed that the number of letters for each line increments by one line, except the last line unless you put the accepted answer in, which then fits the pattern. In other words I found a completely meaningless pattern. – user3559247 Feb 09 '17 at 03:43
