Greatest Pain of All

I doubt I will ever understand why circumstances are the way they are today for you.  If I could trade places with you though, I would without an ounce of hesitation.

It pains me to see you in your current state.  No one deserves that, least of all you.

While every new day is a blessing on one hand, I also see it as a curse for you.  You do not deserve the hand you have been dealt.  I pray that it will all be over for you soon – whatever that means.

Newest tattoo – 5/16/2014

My newest tattoo is one that I will always remember and forever try to forget.

This one was not chosen but has rather been ingrained in my mind for the rest of my life.  I have never been more afraid than I was today but at the same time I would never be able to forgive myself if I had not been there to receive this tattoo.

I will never enjoy Taco Bell again after this day.  I will also never be able to see you wearing your blue turban without fighting back tears with all my might.  While I know those elements had nothing to do with this event, they are elements that will forever be part of the image branded in my memory.

This tattoo will quite possibly represent the darkest hour of my life.
