And I'm not only talking about the military. I'm talking about the life that led me on the road to nowhere. My life. I fought for my brothers. I fought for my family. I fought for my country. And I fought for her... Never realizing I might die for them too. ENDS HERE Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust. And all that stuff. I had killed. I had sacrificed. The innocent and the corrupt. I knew blood and I knew violence. Never imagining I could know love too. Mia Ryder was a woman to love. To cherish. To claim. Now, forever, and every day in between.
