離開，才是真正的愛。

一紙揉皺了的分手信
一句不得不說出口的對不起
一個關於割捨的故事
她愛上別人了。
信還沒看完，我就已經明白。突然間，整個世界好像慢了下來。我把信揉成一團丟到旁邊，很想跟她談談、想要馬上搭機回家，或至少打個電話給她。不過最後我沒回家、沒打電話，也沒回信，只是想辦法弄平揉成一團的信、把信折好放回信封，決定去哪裡都帶著它，像是帶著上戰場所受的傷。
這是一個關於割捨的故事。
從令人屏息的相遇、焦灼的思念與等待，到強忍沉痛的成全，愛情走完了它的四季。他與她曾經被愛情的桂冠所加冕，到了最後，她所能給他的卻只是一紙分手信。感受著已經合而為一的兩人硬生生被割裂的劇痛，他在萬般不解中陷入心碎的絕境。然後他明白了，愛情不得不離開，他所僅存唯一體現愛的方式是……
在你內心深處，是否也有那麼一封揉皺了的分手信？那紙信箋或許被心靈的厚繭所塵封，被時間的魔法變幻了模樣，卻仍舊隱隱召喚著你去尋思――愛的真義。

An angry rebel, John dropped out of school and enlisted in the Army, not knowing what else to do with his life--until he meets the girl of his dreams, Savannah. Their mutual attraction quickly grows into the kind of love that leaves Savannah waiting for John to finish his tour of duty, and John wanting to settle down with the woman who captured his heart. But 9/11 changes everything. John feels it is his duty to re-enlist. And sadly, the long separation finds Savannah falling in love with someone else. "Dear John," the letter read...and with those two words, a heart was broken and two lives were changed forever. Returning home, John must come to grips with the fact that Savannah, now married, is still his true love--and face the hardest decision of his life.
