day 1 i first noticed the way your lips cave in. it happened when you said hello to me. and again when you said goodbye day 3 nonstop smiley faces in the texts you sent me day 6 you held my hand, you kissed me day 7 one week went by and you already invited me to your house. i showed up unaware that i was going to meet your parents. i found out later you planned for this to happen. i mean as soon as i walked into your house, your mom pulled into the driveway. day 8 you showed me around your town. where your first kiss was. where you slept one night when your dad kicked you out. day 12 i remember how you came to my house, waited outside and called me on the phone to ask what i was doing. i told you that i was reading. you said to bring the book with me. i asked where we were going and after a few seconds of silence, you turned on the radio to my favorite band and innocently said, “i don't know” day 23 you saw me play my music live for the first time. afterwards, you said i was the most talented girl you’ve ever met day 26 you took me to 5 museums in one day. i learned a lot. well, about you day 31 i found out that dogs make you happy. also that you’re allergic to bees and you have a birthmark on the left side of your lower back day 56 you told me that letting go isn't the same as giving up, but that its the opposite of holding on day 62 i was stressed. you came over, held me, and played guitar for awhile. i layed there and listened with my eyes closed day 103 you said, “im just in love with the way you say my name” i responded by well, saying your name day 111 you said, “this is realest thing ive ever had in my life” day 122 i loved you day 123 i loved you day 124 i loved you even more day 179 we spent the night on the beach. it wasn’t a typical family beach, or a place where you could to go with friends. we found it ourselves, we loved it and we made it ours day 200 when i was little, my mom would always tell me to love without limits and on this day, i realized that you were the only reason i was able to succeed one of her expectations day 240 i realized the amount of times you called went from twice a day to once, but only even numbered days of the month. the odd numbered ones you didn’t call at all. it was okay thoug. when we did talk, it was worth every minute of waiting day 261 when i hadn’t heard from you in precisely 49 hours, i decided to call your mother. she said you have been spending a lot of time at school, that i shouldn’t worry about you or anything day 279 i went to the drug store, bought 5 bars of your favorite candy and then went straight to your house but you weren’t there so i left them in your mailbox day 280 no call day 281 no call day 282 no call day 283 you called me. well, for 2 minutes. -hi! how are you -good -how was your day today? -good day 296 i still loved you day 304 i hadn’t heard from you in a week and a half day 305 i hadn’t heard from you in a week and a half plus a day day 328 i was going through some old cardboard boxes that i keep underneath my bed, i found one that had pictures we took together. you looked happy and i was in love with how happy you were day 330 i decided to go to our beach but when i got there it was covered in trash so i left day 340 i never missed anything more than the sight of seeing you dancing around in an empty parking lot day 341 i decided to get in my car and drive without a destination. it was the closest way to get to you day 362 i still loved you day 363 i still loved you day 364 i really still did love you day 365 i did the opposite of holding on. i let go
