The Appeals Process for Admissions (please help)

Before the inevitable conflict surrounding a letter of admission appeal, let me explain. I understand that a letter of appeals rarely works, but I want to write this letter. I feel that if I do not take this chance, I will end up regretting it. ( I have nothing to lose as well) That being said, here is my story.
I applied to Duke, had a great interview and felt passionate about the program. I was sad that I didn’t get it, not heartbroken, but I felt that I should try my hardest. I know that appeals processes NEVER work (or work for less than 1% of the time) but I want to try to express my interest to the admissions committee. I have a couple of questions,
Would the school tell my guidance counselor and college that I wrote a letter (I wouldn’t write a letter like that story)
Would anyone be willing to read it?
Again, I realize that this is problem not ideal, but I feel that I would regret.
Thanks
