My Dearest Yesterday, I Have Found a New Love

My Dearest Yesterday, I am writing this letter to say goodbye. Although you have been good to me and have treated me well, it is time for me to move on. I'm not saying that I don't appreciate all that you have done for me; I do, yes, I really do. But nothing seems to be new between us anymore, nothing exciting or challenging, nothing dangerous or mystifying. I seem to know what you are thinking before you think it, and what you will say before you say it. Our relationship is like an old record being played over and over again, and quite frankly, the music is starting to become monotonous. I don't mean to sound ungrateful. You have been a comfort to me when times got tough, a safe place to stay when my world would spin out of control. But I'm starting to feel suffocated. I need to reach out and find new adventures, new challenges, and yes, maybe even new problems. But they will be my adventures, my challenges and my problems, ones that have not yet been lived, overcome or solved. I know you'll understand how I feel, for you were not always my Yesterday. Remember the time when we first met and looked forward to what lay ahead, always surprised at each outcome and how we handled each situation? Wow, those were the days, weren't they? But here I am, once again thinking only of my beloved Yesterday. I have found a new love, my dear; her name is Tomorrow. She has promised me those new adventures, challenges and problems that I so crave and desire. I am giddy with anticipation, as we start to walk hand-in-hand, facing the unknown, but facing it together. I hate that saying, "We can still be friends". But even though I have found a new love, I would still like to be your friend. We may not always be as close as we used to be, and maybe I won't think of you or depend on you as much as I did before, but I would like to believe that you would still be there for me when I need a place to rest. Tomorrow sounds like a wonderful person, but I know she will be a handful. I just hope I'm up for the challenge. Most sincerely, Today
