A/N: This is going to be extremely vague because currently I'm confused about my feelings. Hopefully this'll do.

Dear Crush,
They say that every masterpiece has a muse, an inspiration; well, as I'm writing this, I'm currently thinking about you. I'm wondering if the words I say here will surprise you.. or if they'll make you like me less.
I wonder if you can see the pen marks, the creases on the page where my stack of paper was. The creases left from writing this over and over, giving up all hope of writing a concise letter to you. I can't properly express how I feel on paper and I feel like my words are coming out dull and lifeless - I apologize for not being brave enough to say these things in person.
I like you.
I've uttered those words in front of my mirror thousands of times, attempting to gain the courage to speak them aloud. It's no use, though; the moment I see you, my voice is carried away and I'm left sputtering - too nervous and shy to tell you how I feel.
So here goes nothing, I'm leaving this letter in your mailbox hoping for one last shot. I know I'm not the bravest, crush, but I promise I'll write you in every story as the villain who stole my heart.
Hoping to hear from you soon,
Your admirer
