I've had relationships like this, people that I thought would be a part of my life forever who end up being someone that I call and see less and less. A part of me feels sad over the loss of the relationship but another part realizes that it would be a burden to re-establish it because it failed in some way, usually because we had gotten older and had changed in some way. I don't think you have anything to lose by sending the letter, but I wouldn't get your hopes up either. People grow apart from each other and trying to keep a relationship going that is based in the past doesn't seem to work. Even if your friend doesn't want to re-establish your friendship, I hope you can have some sort of "closure" for lack of a better word, so you don't wonder for the rest of your life.
