It’s easier, sometimes, to put in writing the things you can’t say in person.
I’m sorry I wasn’t a better brother, that I didn’t believe you or stand up for you when I should have done. I’m sorry I wasn’t there when you needed me, and that I made you feel like I hated you. I never did. I never could. You’re my brother.
Putting the characters on paper is definitely less painful than speaking them out loud. But taking the sheet of paper, dropping in the flame, pretending the words don’t matter, is maybe the easiest thing of all.
