Letters to Juliet

Hey Loungers!

After watching Letters to Juliet last night, it had me thinking: what if I wrote my own letter to Juliet? I am not in the best of places at the moment as there is a lot of personal things going on and I do not have any answers. 

Another huge part contributing to me not being in a good place at the moment is due to the fact that I am having a hard time learning how to let go. So, taking a page from the film I watched, and all the people who actually send letters to Verona annually, I decided to write my very own letter to Juliet. The letter is meant as an attempt to get things off my chest and hopefully be able to get a step closer to letting go.

Without further ado, here is my Letter to Juliet that I'd like to share with all of you.

"Did I make the right choice, Juliet? Did I do the right thing by asking for space to think things through? Did I do the right thing for me?
Did I?
If so, why does it hurt so badly?
My heart is breaking all over again. I thought that I was finished with having my heart broken because of him. I thought I was all healed. I thought that I was over him, Juliet. I thought I had let go of all the romantic feelings after things had ended.
I tried telling myself that I didn't care what he did or who he was with in his daily life. I tried telling myself that it didn't matter if we never spoke again. Juliet, that was a lie. Every word was a lie.
I was lying to myself. How could I think that it didn't matter if we never spoke again? After everything he and I have shared? The years of history between us - the laughs, tears, up's and down's.
How could I have thought that it would be as easy as snapping my fingers to get over him, Juliet?
Here I am now, many years  later, crying. Crying tears of sadness at the fact that I cannot have him. I want him more than I've wanted anybody but I cannot have him. When I think of him I see my future but isn't that silly, Juliet? Especially since I cannot have him. What a silly girl I am.
Juliet, I want to know when the pain will end and when my tears will stop falling. When will I be able to think about him and not have my heart break into a thousand little pieces?
They say it's never too late if it's true love but Juliet, could they have been wrong? I think it's time for me to finally let go."
