LETTER ONE

838 64 15
                                    

Dear Camz,

It's been three months.

I've written a whole bunch of these letters every day yet none of them ever make it out of my bedroom. Your mom tells me that she's okay with forwarding my letters, and I'm not sure if she actually is, but I hope that you're taking the time to read it if you do ever come across them.

I miss you more than I can breathe, Camz. I haven't been able to think about anything else besides you. I know, it sounds corny and cliché, but... isn't that what love is? Corny and cliché?

Sometimes I get so overwhelmed with the thought of you that I can't do anything but lay in bed wearing one of your sweaters. I wish I could go back in time and make better choices. I wish I could go back in time and see you one more time.

I wish I realized how much I needed you sooner.

I'm trying not to be stuck on the past and give you all the time you need, but I'm going crazy here. Please just give me a chance to explain everything. I'll lay all my cards out on the table and... Whatever happens after that is up to you.

Do you miss me as much as I miss you?

Love,

Lauren
