Two for the hearts which fell in love
Seventy-seven for 'the crime' we are
Ten for places I can marry you
Seven for the land, where they kill us too
Infinite for these fearful nights
Zero for my hopeful sights
One for the second you close your eyes
Endless for our sad good-byes
There's 10 countries where gay-marriage is legal, 77 where being gay is a crime and 7 where you can get a death sentence because of it.

I actually really like this one. Short, but it works. ^^

Edit: I was requested to write down all those 10 countries where gay-marriage is legal:

The Netherlands (year 2001)
Belgium (2003)
Spain (2005)
Canada (2005)
South-Africa (2006)
Norway (2009)
Sweden (2009)
Portugal (2010)
Island (2010)
Argentina(2010)

And in USA, there's five states where it's legal: Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa, New Hampshir ja Vermont and the capital Washington DC. Also, in Mexicos capital México it's legal.

(Edit: Hoooooray New York, for being the sixth state to legalize it! Me so Proud! With a capital P!)
