“Before his 💜 was purple, before skies turned grey, before an entire lifetime changed in a single day.”
“I promised I’d finish this someday. When I originally made the promise, it was a poem called “Warrior Come Home”. Over the last 8 years teaching writing classes, I’ve met so many amazing Veterans, and this poem and the lines have changed many times over the years, including the name, but never the message. The heart of it is the same. Some things you can push through and finish them, and other kinds of creating, it’s going to let you know when it’s ready to be finished. Here you go brother…” – Travis Jacobs
