do you know what today is?

a year ago today, i met you for the first time.
there you were, standing there in a sea of people,
and for a moment, time stopped.
i still remember.

a year ago,
15 hours from now will be the first time i saw you.
7 days from now, you would have been in portland, texting me 10 times an hour.
9 days from now, will be the first time i ever drank, and it will have been with you.
right after that, we would have went to see a meteor shower together
15 shooting stars later, we will go home

on the 13th, i took 4 pictures with you.  we drew on them for 2 hours.
you were there for me when i ran away from her, and when i was out on the streets.
you took care of me.
the day i left, we ran around the airport,
i even missed my flight.

we lived each minute like it was our last together,
because it was.

and one year later im still wondering why i ever left.
i miss you.
