Dear Someone: Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is stop waiting for someone who isn't coming back.

Dear, Dear Someone, _

This letter finds you in that delicate space between holding on and letting go, where hope has become both a comfort and a prison. You who keeps checking your phone, interpreting every small sign as a potential return, crafting scenarios of reconciliation in your mind. You who has turned waiting into an art form, even as it slowly drains the color from your present moments.
