You cannot possibly know how much I miss my dear friend Hayden.
As much as I want to rewind to this day, I want to fast-forward to the next one like it!

Sharing separate articles of a two-piece ensemble, I pose with a best friend on the eve of her departure for an engagement and new life with fiance in Argentina. She wears her favorite platforms, I wear her patchwork Pradas, and we celebrate a momentous, if temporary, visit among friends. With increasing progression, I watch as my closest disperse across the globe. It seems the farther they go and the further they evolve, the harder (and for this exception I permit such a colloquial expression), it tugs at my heartstrings.
I feel a paper map is in order, one that I’ll adorn with stars as new places transform from anonymous bullets to tender homes. I’ll seek comfort in this constellation and delight in the formation of patterns, no matter how dispersed, we will collectively form across a sprawling and infinite sky.
Congratulations Miss, soon to be Mrs, Hayden Lewis!
