Sacramento, California-based artist Rora Blue, 19, asked strangers to share with her the things that they would really like to say to their first loves, if they had the chance to send a text message without repercussions. She also had them each suggest the color that they thought best represented that person.

The result was the 'Unsent Project', a collection of printed notes in varying hues, each baring the raw and emotional message, which Rora has also arranged into a stunning collage.

The messages range in tone, from the tragic and heartbreaking, to the angry and frustrated, but what each one has in common is the level of honesty put across in such a small number of words.
這些短信口吻各異，悲情傷心的也好，生氣憤怒的也罷，共同之處在于寥寥數(shù)語(yǔ)卻誠(chéng)摯可信。

給瑞恩：
你親吻她的時(shí)候，我能控制自己，
你談?wù)撍臅r(shí)候，我一樣可以裝作毫不在意；
但是當(dāng)我看到你看她的樣子，我TMD徹底慌了。

超過2000人就此做出了回應(yīng)。這名藝術(shù)家把遞交的短信壓縮至400條，然后按照顏色排列，組成了4'*7'的拼貼。

給每個(gè)人：
你的初戀必須是你自己，
而不是什么蠢蛋，

The messages, many of which are addressed to the first name of the intended recipient, came from people who are incredibly sad and heartbroken, hurt and angry, and, in some cases, still in love.
這些消息很多都是直接對(duì)預(yù)想收信人直呼名字的，寫信人有些傷心欲絕、深受傷害、生氣憤怒，而還有一些人依舊愛著對(duì)方。

And then there are those that express devastation and sadness, sent both by those still in relationships, and those whose hearts have been broken by a former lover.

（你曾經(jīng)是我的愛，但現(xiàn)在我愛別人了）
