From Daisy's heart

Dear Jay,

          I do not know where to began. This is my sixth time trying to write a letter that will make you understand me and my feelings. So, I will be truthful and tell you from the beginning that I am about to make a life changing decision today that I may later regret. I do not know if it is the right one. I just know that I am tried to begin alone and waiting for you every single day of my life. When you left me a hole appeared in my heart. I loved you very much and that is why a resented you as well. Because loving you meant pain and missing you meant extreme solitude. Everyday a piece of me died from within and it seemed that there was no end to this pain. Therefore, I have made the choice that will set me free from this dreadful prison. Jay, I am getting married but my heart still belongs to you. I am going to start my own life and be happy. Jay, I want to be able to feel happiness again. I want to feel alive again instead of being half death and living off the memories from the past.

          I know you are going to hate me for what I am about to do. But, please try to see my poor heart and then judge me. The man that I am marrying is someone that my family approves of. He is well educated, wealthy and a good person. I know he will treasure me just as you once did. I believe that he is the one who can set me free from this misery. Jay we should just think of our time together in Kentucky as a beautiful dream. However, a dream is only a dream. It has to end sometime and so I am going to wake up to reality as should you.  Forgive me for this selfish act and forget me.

                                                                                                                Goodbye,

                                                                                                                             Daisy
