Dear Arden,
Remember when you told me to stop drinking?
Remember when I stopped?
Remember when I promised you that I wouldn't drink again?
Well, I just broke that promise. I couldn't help myself, I didn't know what to do. Your gone, I'm all alone and all I could turn to were my old habits.
I'm so sorry. Please forgive me for this. The temptation was too strong to resist. I tried, but with you not there, I couldn't stop myself. You were the reason I changed, my motivation, my weakness, my strength. You still are but your not here.
Not here to motivate me, to scold me, to lead me from wrong to right. I'm really sorry, and you probably know that after I'm done writing this letter I will start drinking again. I know I am. You would understand me right?
With love, your idiot.
