As I inspect my child‚ now grown with children of her own‚ holding tickets back to their home‚ longing envelopes me. Hoards of people push past‚ unaware of my pain‚ on their own schedules and heading toward different trains‚ talking and texting on their cell phones.

Our world is plagued. Never thought that things would end up this way. Without warning nations fell‚ bodies stacked‚ and there’s very few survivors left. At least that’s what I think...
