I really couldn't explain it other than saying the standard......pain, anger, confusion......depression.

BUT.....I was listening to one of my daughters CD's this morning....and this song really hit on how I felt just after DDay.

Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Green Day

I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone

I walk this empty street
On the boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone
I walk alone I walk alone
I walk alone I walk alone

[CHORUS:]
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Till then I walk alone

I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line of the edge
And where I walk alone

Read between the lines
What's f----- up and everythings all right
Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive
And I walk alone

I walk alone I walk alone
I walk alone I walk alone

[CHORUS]

I walk this empty street
On the boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone

Of course it doesn't describe how I feel today....but I still like the song.

I discovered this song aroung Dday. Mine was only 3 1/2 mo ago. I listened to it so much that my 5 year old daughter even knows the words- the chorus anyway. (The "what's F***** up" part she does not hear/understand thank goodness.) LOL

I tried to articulate that sensation too, but not as lyrically as Green Day I'm afraid...

How did I feel on D-day ?
