Dear Pete,

How did we get this far from where we started? I know that everyone must pursue their dreams. But we made promises to each other beneath the sun. Now you're going off to pursue our dream with someone who knows nothing about the struggle. And if our suffering is foreign to her, tell me, what could she possibly know about you?

I am still the same person. True, I'm stuck in quicksand. But one day I'll get out. And what a grand shaking it will be when I break free. I have great value. Perhaps one day you'll see the length and breadth of me. I know that day isn't today. And that's why it's time for me to accept the truth.

You've been approved for great things. You're going off to taste the sweetness of an undiscovered world. So live it to the fullest for you and me. Breathe in that Stocatta air with my lungs. I'll feel it because, even after so much time has passed, your kisses still burn my tongue with this madness called desire.

Mary.
