Dear "You"...From "Me"-Letters Unsent

Post Reply New Topic

Dear you,

My regret is that you only saw the worst of me

From me

I really wish I could be of more help or use to you.

I don't feel like we have anything in common anymore. You've lived a whole other kind of life.

Hey,

I'm sorry, but it's how I feel and always have. Yeah, there's never been much left there. I never really left that first hospital and your son wasn't the same one, but you've kept me going, so thank you. You carried it all too and helped me become something akin to a human again. Dad couldn't understand, but we know why that one is; much easier if I was like him for me, but I won't take that exchange.

I wish I could take your illness and pain from you.

Love,
D

Dear You,

Please bear with me. I'm doing the best I can right now. It's so much easier to talk in person or even in written form. You know I'm awful on the phone and I'm awful with feelings, but I do miss you and I want things to be better. I'm just as frustrated as you are, in more ways than one.

Please wait for me.

I need to let go before I sink my own ship

To you,

I love you.

Regardless of anything and for everything.

Not really unsent, as it's out there for all,

You . . .

I know what you did.  You have 24 hours to make things right on your own.  You were nice to me once, so I owe you that much.  If the 24 hours have elapsed with no action on your part, I go to the authorities, present the evidence, sit back, and watch what happens.  This is your only warning.

. . . Me

You,

The pressure makes me feel demoralised and disillusioned, and puts a damper on the little I've managed to achieve. I don't want the red carpet royal treatment either. Just a little guidance and genuine support and empathy, and if failing that, I just wish to be left alone.

Me.

Hey,

You make me laugh. Amazingly so. I guess that answered my assumption though. No, you don't know her, and I don't think she'd see me as you do there, just saying, as I likely caused too much pain there (sorry). I guess I've caused it with you all the same, but different types (sorry). You have far too much bias, and in person tends to paint that painting a little different than words, and doing things in that painful but mostly peaceful world likely builds things differently. It's just my hopes and wishes there. Just feelings. She's helped me far more than she'd know, and I'd like her to know how I feel for that.

Thanks for checking on me though. It makes me happy seeing you more mobile and in less pain (that'll be an understatement).

Love,
Son

Hey (to you),

I wish I could have showed my love to you, and that gentleness I apparently have. Just feeling those regrets, sorry, and my biggest one will come running to you here.

Love,
D

Hey,

I'm just gonna smile.

Love,
D

You . . .

Every truth I tell draws attention away from all the lies you tell.  Jealous much?

. . . Me

Thankyou, and I'm sorry.

Hey,

Thanks. I don't deserve it, nor feel like it's even for me (that's how my brain goes with that self-hatred). Thank you again. I won't forget.

I'm sorry for everything, and I always will be, just as I won't forget your kind acts.

Love,
D
