Heartbreak Warfare

Briggs, Remember when we parted ways in Germany? It was the day I broke your heart.

What you didn't know was that I was breaking mine too.

I thought they’d be enough — my husband and my son. That I’d get home and everything would go back to the way it was before the war, before the ambush, before you.

No matter how hard I try, I can’t erase the trauma we shared. I can’t seem to forget the way my heart beat in time with yours. The truth is, I’m lost without you.

I thought the nightmare was over when they pulled us from that hole in the ground, but nothing could have prepared me for the war I’d face at home.

I know it’s selfish of me to ask, but please, I have to see you one last time...

All my love,

Scottie
