Feb. 26
Dear Corinne,
February learnt how to be February again. The rain turned into snow and all the water turned into a glistening sheet of ice over every surface. They cancelled the busses, so I stayed in bed all morning, staring at the wall and listening to music. City and Colour, Bon Iver, U2, Neil Young, Pink Floyd, the Beatles- I went through all my favourites. So many songs of so many people who have suffered.
Then Dad made me eat and go outside. I walked to the park and sat on the bench where Collin took me that one night. I closed my eyes and imagined his body next to me, Christmas lights above me, hot chocolate in my hands.
But when I opened my eyes, everything was grey.
Love,
Leigh
