Letter 4

32 3 2
                                    

Dear Venus,

I'm sorry about going dark for some time. I love you guys, honestly I do. I do hope that we may reconnect and have true balance again.

I didn't realize a letter would habe such impact. I didn't think you cared, and maybe that was the issue. From now on, though, I'll write you more, I swear.

So...Jupiter cried? He's such a big softie, I hate that I was the reason though. And Uranus and Neptune? Took them long enough. About billions of years too long. A gift from Earth? Is he making me another friendship sculpture, or is it a secret? It's nice to know you're still your cheery self, Venus.

It saddens me, though, to think that Mercury is upset with me. I mean, I don't want any of you to be upset with me, especially not Mercury. Did she say why? Did she say how I could fix it? Or is it still about the last letter? Oh no, are you still mad about that letter? I'm sorry about it, Venus, I really am.

I brought it up to The Sun, but I feel I should tell you, too. I feel lost, Venus. Every other planet has a purpose and I'm just sitting her like the non-planet I am. I just don't know what to do. Sun says that the humans on Earth adore me, but is that truly so? I cannot hear them, for Earth is too far. Everyone is too far. Or maybe I'm too far, Venus? Have I built my walls up so high that I've ruined my relationships with you? I hope not.

Sincerely,

Pluto
