[03]

Dear Anna,

I dug up a bunch of my old sketches of you.

I sorted them out and made them into an entire collage. There was a sketch of you while you were smiling, there was another sketch of you when you were staring at me disapprovingly, one while you were focused on sketching, one when you were laughing, your first real laugh, and one when you broke down and cried as I hugged you and comforted you for the entire night.

There were so many sketches of you, looking at them made me miss you so much.

I took out a stash of beer I had kept hidden from my parents in the back of my closet and started drinking again because I felt so awful thinking about you. It hurt thinking about you, Anna.

We couldn’t even finish our final project together. I regret that so, so much because now, I miss you so much. 

I don’t think I can ever stop missing you.

I miss you more and more every single day.

I love you, Anna, I really do.

I just wish you knew.

Connor.
