♪ People say we shouldn’t be together, but I say they don’t know what they talk, talk, talkin’ about ♫

I don’t think any of us saw what was coming until it was actually happening before our very eyes – it all started somewhere along those sun emoji days, a little pack of gummy worms, a warm cup of hot chocolate – pin-pointing how it all started is pretty hard, and does that even matter, really? A lot of people also said it wouldn’t work and that what we have will end before it even succeeds; we started off with almost everyone against us, but, again, does that even matter? What mattered to me most was how I felt about you.

♪ Just one touch and I was a believer, every kiss it gets a little sweeter, it’s getting better, Keeps getting better all the time ♫

I can still remember everything as if it was just yesterday. None of it was ever supposed to happen, but falling in love with you and choosing you was the only right decision I’ve ever made in my 25 years of existence. I remember that one Friday night which I thought was the last of “us,” I was so sure that what we have would end right there and then before it even started. But now, here we are. No more last Fridays or last days, all my days and nights are dedicated for you and only you.

♪ They don’t know about the things we do, they don’t know about the I love yous but I bet you if they only knew, they would just be jealous of us ♫

I can’t believe it’s been a year already! We’ve come so far, yet we still have a long way to go. If I was asked to go through every complication, I’d go through all of it again in a heartbeat if it meant being here with you. You’ve taught so much in the past year and though you always make me roll my eyes, you also never fail to make me fall in love with you over and over again. A year may not have been long enough, but taking these baby steps will lead us to a lifetime with each other. I will always celebrate the days that I have with you.

♪ They don’t know what we do best, that’s between me and you, our little secret, but I wanna tell ‘em I wanna tell the world that you’re mine ♫

Thank you for always trying to make me see the beauty in everything when all I see is darkness but most of all, thank you for loving and understanding such a cantankerous person like me (you’re cantankerous yourself, so let’s call it quits). Regardless of it all, I love you. If I would be given a second life, I’d make sure to find you just so I could spend another lifetime with you. Happy first anniversary – my heart will forever be yours.

♪ They don’t know how special you are, they don’t know what you’ve done to my heart, they can say anything they want ’cause they don’t know about us ♫
