Dear Mr. Reckless,

Jesus Christ, you were an idiot! I haven't seen you in a spell, so I have absolutely no idea if you're the same boy I fell for in the midst of all your troublesome hobbies. Man... I can't say you're the one at fault for my feelings when I truly set myself up for heartbreak. Getting over a rejection was an expletive and I couldn't help but put a bandage over it.

I've got to say, you are one tall bandage.

No, no, no, don't get me wrong. My feelings weren't all artificial, because I did hang on to you like you were a monkey bar. You were like an imitation of Mr. Soft Genuine because at one point you actually fooled me! You made me think you cared. Somehow that managed to hurt me, even though you were supposed to be my bandaid.

Instead of saving you from being  Mr. Reckless, I watched you transition into a person I'd never witnessed. That gentleness I had once appealed to attempt to repair my heart with had vanished. You were gone.

I can't say sorry enough.
