Goodbye, George!

Goodbye, George!

Dear George,

We've known each other for about four years. Yet, while I stand right in front of you, you still don't know me or how I feel about you. I have been waiting for so long, and kept every word, every conversation that we ever had- in my heart because I believe one day, we will be together.

But … how long do I have to wait? I don't have forever. All you ever did was treat me like a friend. All you ever did was to give me hope just to break my heart once again. I waited, and waited and waited for you.

I’m getting tired of waiting. I am tired. I am lonely. And I am angry. I am angry because you don't know how I feel about you. I am angry because I don't have the courage to tell you that I love you.

Do you know that what others say is true? The loneliest person in the world is not the one who lives in the desert, but people like me - the ones who stand before those they love the most and yet they do not know that.

I have been sad and lonely for too long. They say that love brings you joy and happiness. To me, it has brought me nothing but tears. You have brought me tears.

This letter is not meant to make you regret so if you should grieve my death, don't.

It is not your fault. It is mine. I should never have fallen in love with you in the first place. I have to write this letter because I desperately want to tell you how I feel - how you are my everything. When I found out that you are getting married, my life is not worth living anymore.

Goodbye, George. I hope that you have a happy marriage.

The one who loves you always,
Jane.
