Aftershocks

I may be home but I'm not really here.. When I was locked in a cell I somehow felt stronger than I do now. Everywhere I look it reminds me of how grateful I should be to be home.. But hundreds are still in captivity because I failed to save them.. I know I need to stay vertical so I can find them all and I'm gonna try. But I'm sure I'll fall before I learn to run past this.. -Laila_________________________. She's here but she isn't here.. For the last three months I've dreamed of holding my fiancé in my arms again. Now she's here. I'm holding her and somehow it feels like I'm alone.. But I'll do what I've always done. I'll push that thought to the back of my mind hold her tighter and remind myself that one day she'll really be here again.. One day I'll have the love of my lives back.One day we'll save the remaining survivors.One day we'll get the happy ever after we deserve.. One day.. -JeremyUpdated 3/9/22
