Angol
I thought losing my buddies in battle would blind my humility. But then I met Luna, and she forced my eyes open. There was a bright sky above us.
Waited my whole life to belong to something meaningful. It wasn't the family I was born in, or the army unit I signed up for.
Luna and Olallie Lovett were the shocks that made my heart race. They were the early morning whispers of hope. Small giggles between quiet lips. Hushed solitude against common ailments.
Our vicious opinions suppressed emotions. Quakes the floorboards beneath our feet.
I told her I couldn't do it.
A simple lie.
One I would regret every minute, until the day I was relieved of my duties.
To see her face, to hold her, finally, love her.
Because she was meant to be mine, and no matter the years I suffered on earth, I would forever be Luna's.
Without her, there is no Asher Rainer, Army Specialist E-4.
There is only ash.
