welcome home

what happens when the plan lands and the soldiers come home?
do we continue like they never left or we do learn to accept them as they are as new people? 

 well i found out when my husband came home he was not the same person as when he left his eyes were colder and he had lost some of him self. he came home safe with very few scares on his body he was one of the lucky ones you would think. some would think that coming home would be great a big party get to see ones they missed over seas but what they don't mention is the horrors that they had seen. the buddies they lost they don't speak of them for they fear it will show a weakness to cry.

some who come home have lost limbs or more, some lose pieces of there soul while others lose there life, and i think there poor families they don't have the one person they loved. but i also think that they are lucky that they don't have to live with what they had done every day that they have left on this earth. yes i know i sound cold, but to those wife's who lose there husband to depression they lose the man. they lose more then just him they lose a lover and some times even a father as an army mans wife we must pick up some of the pieces lost by what they witnessed. even after they  get home we still have much to do. as some will tell you a women's work is never done.

as a wife we must learn to love them for who they are now and they must in turn love who we have become and it is a long road one paved with many hardships but if one is willing to put in the work they will have a ship that most will be jealous of.

some scares are more than skin deep.
