Description
An anonymous teenager is writing a letter to anyone who will listen. They are writing about the horrors they witness in the world, because by sharing, people may help. Sometimes all you need is a new perspective. Possible TW: mentions of school shootings, Police shootings, kidnapping, drugging/rape, suicide/self harm... It gets sort of heavy. Sorry. I don't think this is considered mature, but if you're under 13, you probably shouldn't read it. But hey, I'm not your parent. It's probably not that bad, just... you can't unread things. Please keep that in mind. Authors note: I am fully aware people have different experiences than I do. I tried to generalize the letter the best that I could, and tried to do justice to the problems that I wrote about. I am in no way trying to soften the trauma people face, or make light of any of these serious situations. Like the synopsis said. I'm just trying to bring awareness to the issues. I wrote this letter for my grade 10 English exam. My teacher thought I should submit it to the school paper, but, me being me, I didn't think it was good enough. Reading it again... I was right. I wrote it in an hour. But I wanted to share it with people, hence you hopefully reading it now. I rewrote it slightly, and ended up making it WAY darker than it needs to be, but I did write the original in 2018, so not all of the issues in 2020's society are represented (i did end up getting some of it in my rewrite). Anyways, hope you enjoy
The letter
