It's Only Skin

I need to know if this is all worth it. All of this sadness, struggle and heartache, is it worth it? When Mike comes home "for good," I need to know there will be a plan for us. I want him to go back to the Citadel, and I'll follow him to Charleston. I've always wanted to live there anyway. I want to be happy with him and stay with him.

I've been hurting so much lately, my eyes are dull and half open. They burn when I cry and I've been crying a lot lately. I need to get away from Florida, and inhale the Charleston air. I don't care if I go alone, I just need to get away.

I cannot tell you how confused I am. The sadness is affecting my health and well-being in general. Something needs to change. I need a change.
