Letters From Home

I went to go see Chris today before he went to work, he had to work nights today, and when I got to his room to see if he wanted to go drive around he had his ipod playing. He put on the song, Letters From Home. I sat down and began to tear up. I told him that song makes me cry. I was thinking of how I knew he was going to be going overseas and that would be him holding up those letters from home. The mere idea of him leaving still gets to me. I should already be used to it, and I still have time to prepare myself for the day that he does leave. But the fact of the matter is that I don't want him to go over there, its dangerous and people die everyday over there. That makes me want to cry. So as I was holding my face, he sat next to me and held me and said that it would be alright, and he would come home.
