Please Forgive Me

Dear Kaden,

I'm sorry for all the hardships I ever put you through, the ridicule, the hate, the mockery, the beatings, the torture...I really am sorry. 

My life has taken a turn for the worst, and when I was sitting in a jail cell when mother's funeral was going on, I decided I had better change for the better. But I can't,Kaden. You don't understand the terrible struggle I am going through, the agony, the pain, the despair. I would kill myself except that's not the answer. But I don't know what is.

I know we never got along, and I know you hate me, and with good reason. I'm sorry. I know "sorry" doesn't erease the horrors of seventeen years, but I am trying. And if you can find it anywhere in there, please please forgive me.

Your brother,

Kole
