The LRJ About the Play

For my loving sister Antigone,
I am ashamed of the way that I denied to have a proper funeral of Polynethieus.  I was a afraid of the consequences that our uncle Creon would do to us if we were to be caught.  I loved our brothers equally and I wished I would have been there to help give him a funeral to send him to the gods.  Now that I have had time to rationalize I realize that I was very mistaken to not go with you.  I wish our family had not had this awful past that our father and mother that have bethroved on us, but even after all of that I am still grateful to have such a loving sister as yourself.  I want you to know that I too will take the blame for the burying of our brother, I feel that I need to clean my conscious and my spirit because I did not bury him.  I didn't stop you from burying him and I didn't even try to convince you but instead I was a coward and did not go.  If you are not alive then who will I have to talk to, or spend my time with.  You are my only family left, and Creon has gone crazy.  I am not strong enough to stay here on the planet alone.  I hope you understand what I am saying to you.

Your sister,
Ismene

You need to go and edit a bit more. Polyneices is spelled wrong, but when I read your blog I was able to picture her tone.
