Dear B.

You said
'I don't believe in love anymore, or religion.
I don't believe in people.
I've lost faith in the human race.'

I'm not sure I believe in religion anymore,
and it's easy to lose faith in the human race.
But don't give up on love.
I'm not going to tell you anything cliched
like how 'there's someone for everyone'
or anything like that.
But if you stop caring so much,
then sometimes good things will find you.
I don't know how,
or if it will work
but please don't give up.
So many people love you and care
about you, can't you see?

You say you're not happy, 
but it's easy to be fooled
into thinking that you are,
because you're so good at acting.
But now that I know
it won't be easy to forget.

Love, Me.

I think people need to believe in love because it's the thing that gives their lives meaning.
I think she lost all meaning a while ago.
I don't think she cares too much, I think she doesn't care anymore about anything.
I don't think it matters that she doesn't believe in love, I think it matters that she doesn't believe in anything.
Because that means she has nothing left to fight for.
