Excerpt:

She holds her pen tightly in her hands as she writes the letter to the man that she once knew, knowing he will receive it long after she is gone and knowing this is the only way she could tell him everything.
…I wasn't ready for you to come into my life. I wasn't looking for anyone to be there. Though I was not looking for you, you fell into my heart and you are in my heart now and always.
Tears fall from her face onto her light blue flowered summer dress. She wipes her eyes and continues to write with a shaky hand.
…Though it is hard to bear to be without you, I need you to know this.
