"day 1: I met someone. we spoke for hours, constantly. the conversation flowed like the blood in my veins, it never stopped. just like the rain.
day 5: you told me stories that interest me. your jokes make me laugh, even though they are terrible. your smile is glorious. you said my eyes were the perfect colour, it made me turn scarlet red.
day 14: we've got to know each other more, I know that you don't like the peppers on your pizza so you give them to me. I kept staring at you, I think you noticed.
day 27: I trust you completely. I told you about my past. All the times I've hurt myself and how others have hurt me. When I'm around you it feels like home. We held each other's hand.
day 31: you kissed me. it felt like you had released something inside me. I felt sparks. it was electrifying.
day 33: you asked me to date you. I said yes. you kissed me a thousand times.
day 45: I'm falling for you. You were singing Christmas songs, I just stared at you. It made me feel warm inside.
day 59: we were alone. we were making out. you took off my shirt and said i was an angel. I laughed & pushed you away. you kissed me and said you loved me. we carried on. I slept in your arms, i was exhausted.
day 62: I was walking down a street. I saw you kiss another person. I ran home crying. I was so stupid. how could I have let myself do that all for you?
day 65: you came to my house, told me you loved me. I yelled and screamed at you with tears running down my face. I hate what you've done to me. I hate myself now. I don't even feel comfortable in my own skin. You knew I knew.
day 70: I've started hurting myself with blades again. I've turned my skin scarlet red. it numbs the pain of what you did to me.
day 84: I have nightmares about you. you've cursed me.
day 108: I don't think about you anymore. I always feel numb. I sometimes hurt myself when I can't cope.
day 143: I was in the park reading, this person came and sat next to me. they saw the marks on my skin and said I didn't need to do it"
day 182: this person looks after me. I've stopped hurting myself."
