I'd not heard of twentysomethingwriters.com until today but when I stumbled upon it I decided to join in with the "writing prompt". This prompt was entitled "unspoken" - to read the full details head on over to their site here. But I figured, as I've not told a secret in a while, this would kill two birds with one stone (I am so going to write a post on useless and nonsense sayings / phrases we use one day!!). In short, the idea is to write something you would say to someone if you could (but for reasons that don't need to be explained you can't).
Ok, I think I have more than one person to blog about here so each paragraph will be for someone different!
Here goes nothing...
S - Why did you lie to me and break my heart? It would've been so easy to tell the truth, I'm a reasonable person as reasoning goes. I would've coped and it would've ended amicably. Instead you had to drag it out and made it 10 times worse! Then you had to change your mind and make it even worse for me because I had to say no to you, if we got into that vicious cycle we would never have gotten out of it. That was 7 years ago and it still bothers me! I know I say I've forgiven you, but for some reason it still hangs around in my mind. You were mean and you said horrible things...all because of your guilt! I'm not sure I'll ever forgive you, even if I say i have....in fact, I'm going to de-friend you on Facebook!
SP - I'm really sorry I stole your crayons when we were 5! It still bothers me a little!
A - I was such an idiot for being with you! You were the worst of the bunch, you might not have stolen my heart but you stole, lied and deceived. I'm glad you ran away when things got tough because I know what you did. In fact, the whole of the UK knows what you did because it was in a national paper. You did me a favour by leaving!
M - I'm so sorry I hurt you. You were gentle, kind, caring and selfless but I just wasn't there with you! I tried really hard but I just didn't feel the same. I'm sorry for hurting you and not being completely honest from the start but I'm really pleased you found someone who treats you as you deserve to be treated!
K - I forgive you; although it was trivial it caused a lot of hurt and upset for that final year and it made me miserable. I'm glad we're friends again and I was really pleased when you apologised (5 years later!!)...better late than never! I appreciate and value your friendship now we're older.
JR - We didn't get on in the beginning, and it was a very long beginning. You made my life hell whilst growing up and you pushed me out when I should've been on the inside where I belonged. I'm glad everyone can see it now because I felt invisible for a long time. I'm glad you felt bad when you realised what you did, but you can stop now because it's over and everything is fine. Something you may never hear me say out loud, but I do mean it, is that I love you. I'm sorry you'll never get to hear that.
Stevie - Oh Stevie, what did you do!? I hope oneday you figure it all out and come home. No-one's angry, we all just want to know you're ok. It's been almost 2 years without any news. They found your things near where you used to live. Your mum was devastated. We hope you didn't so something bad. There's always another way. Starskey wrote a song about you!! I really hope to see you soon, we all do. Lots of Love xx
Oh my god, I could actually go on with this for hours - I'm not big on speaking my mind out loud so this is actually quite therapeutic hehe! Anyway, before I bore you all and you never come back I shall stop! Maybe I'll continue another day (when I can sneak in a post without anyone noticing!!).
BY THE WAY if you haven't seen my last couple of posts, check them out HERE and HERE, because it’s super and uber cool and the bestest thing ever and you need to join in. It’s my 100% excellent recession busting plan (that, like I’ve said before, I cannot believe the government have never thought of. They’ll catch on soon though – like they did with my idea to print more money!). JOIN IN (or I’ll tell you how much you suck. Well I wont, but I’ll say I did!).

Are you writing letters to your ex lovers? ...
Because if I did, I'd start every single one with, "hey a-hole, remember that time..."
Ok, S, A & M were an XBFs, SB, K & JR were friends and Stevie was a really good friend who just disappeared one day!
@Cheryl - I totally get that!!
Oh I like this. It's good to get things like that out. And I totally understand about still holding something from 7 yrs ago. I would do that.
How awesome was this prompt, seriously? I feel so much lighter.
@ CC I don't normally have a letting go problem, but it was all quite traumatic (that sounds ridic now I've written it!!). I'll figure it out one day!!
@ LiLu It felt great...until I read your spectacular effort! I so could've said more and revealed more ridiculous things if I'd put a little more effort in! Note to self - must try harder! Role on the next prompt!!
for who this letter??
