It's 11 AM on Veterans Day

I'm here and you're not.

I'm sorry

My mind failed both you and me and left you alone in a world of violence and death.  When you paid the ultimate sacrifice I was in tears when I wasn't there.  I had to find out about you by seeing your name on my TV screen.

I hope you are at peace now because I am in my own living hell for not being there and each and every Veterans Day I punish myself by not going to any events I am invited to.  It's a day where I don't feel that proud of my service because I failed you.
