dear neil,

you've been gone for three days now. i haven't spoken to anyone outside of the poets. i haven't spoken nearly as much as i used to. i figured starting these letters would help. i'm still talking to you even if you can't talk back. i don't know where you are but maybe you've seen how our lives have fallen into complete chaos. charlie was expelled. from what i know, his parents are sending him to military school. i never thought their bogus threat would become real. nolan teaches english now. keating was fired yesterday. i wish you could've seen what we did for him. i finally spoke up, neil. aren't you proud of me?

i love you forever,
todd
