Unopened letters to the world.

There are 82 letters in here, and they're all addressed to you. I wrote them all this summer, one a day, but I never sent them because I was afraid. I was afraid of getting my heart broken again, like before. Cause you hurt me so bad and I was afraid to be vulnerable again. I was afraid of you and the way that you make me feel. And I know that doesn't matter now, after what I did, but i just thought that you should know. This is how I spent my summer, wanting you. I was just too scared to admit it.

Have you ever written a letter to someone and never sent it? Never texted, e-mailed, or sent the words you really wanted to say? If so, you're like me. I have exactly 47 letters saved. Some here on my computer, others handwritten.. some lost in my cyberspace of my e-mail's Draft box.. but they all have one thing in common - the words I wrote, no matter who to, were exactly how I felt and when I felt them. Sometimes you just need to write it all down, if not some pretty good things could get lost. I'm not going to lie, if somethings pretty serious or I really need to let someone know how I feel - which is rare, I will write it out. I find that's when exactly the right words find me.. here's a little example. Mind you these are pretty personal, names won't be mentioned..

Letter One.
Help me out because I'm a little confused. You don't like some of the things I've done, but yet you've done the same? I don't get it. Help me understand what you want. Do you want me? If you do great - if not, I guess I can live with that. But you wanna know what I think? I think you do like me, or you could like me but you're too stubborn and scared to admit it because the last time you gave your heart to someone it got broken. And I get that, I've been there, but you gave up on the idea that you deserve to feel that way again. Please don't do that - even if it's not with me. I saw something in you, something good, and I still believe that. You just need to see it for yourself.

So you see, letters - no matter what their nature always have a purpose. To tell someone how you feel, to relieve stress, or just to take up time. How you write is up to you - whether or not you send the letters is also up to you. I've never let anyone see mine, until now. Who knows.. maybe I'll just post them all on here one day.. maybe.
