So Long, Farewell

Dear Heart,
I packed quietly all morning, my best friend sat beside me. We talked about everything and nothing, she munching on leftover birthday cake and me picking at lemon tart (delicious). The sun hit the big windows in my room and struck Siân's head like a halo. Everything felt clean, even while licking lemon tart from my fingers.
Life was happening, slowly and sweetly. I loved it.
Love, Lydia x
