Dear {Name},
There's no way to write this letter that isn't an abject apology. I know it takes two to tango, but I'm sorry for everything that happened between us. I'm sorry for leaving. I'm sorry for staying away. I'm sorry that I've gone this long without apologizing for {action}.
Relationships are difficult, but this time apart has just reminded me that they're worth it, too. I know I'll never find someone out there who knows me so well, who loves me so well, and who treats me so well. There's no one like you in the world.
Anyway, every sad pop song for the last {amount of time} has felt like it was written directly about me, and I'm getting kind of tired of it. I can't keep feeling this way and not tell you how I feel. I was wrong to {action} and I'm so, so sorry.
Love,
{Sender}
