Never Forget

Ten years.Two marriages.A divorce.A boy and a girl.Multiple tragedies. Everyone thought we would be the end-game. Laramie has always been the love of my life, and I was her rock. She stood by me through my entire deployment, and when I walked away, she protected me. Laramie was a beacon in the storm; she used her light to call me home when I couldn't find my way.She's withstood a lifetime of heartache, and everyone knows I don't deserve a second chance with all I've put her through. I came home broken and lost to everything but her. War does that to a person, but I never imagined we would be the casualties.As fate would have it, her life is upended again. Her world's fallen apart, and she's devastated, facing it on her own. Laramie has never needed anyone. And she definitely doesn't need me, but I can't live another day without her.I'm coming home, and she's still my everything. I'm drawn to her like a moth to a flame. There's a reckoning on the horizon, and I'm headed straight into the line of fire.But I can't go another minute without telling her… never forget, it's always been you.
