58 days since my home and everything I ever loved and cared about was destroyed. 

I’ve found refuge in a rather large bunker underneath what used to be an office building. At first I saw the lights shining from the rubble while trying to find a place to camp for the night, after a few minutes of digging and clearing away dust and debris I found the hatch. The hatch was much like a submarine entrance hatch. It was round and was shaped like a sort of squashed dome, in the center was a big red wheel. I thought of so many movies I’d watched, the only different was what it was made of, this was a reinforced steel, heat treated and the lights on the hatch were a fluorescent material, they didn’t require electricity and were thin as paper… or at least that’s what I’ve been told, I’ve never actually used paper.

I used this underground room for a house while I waited for the clean up crew to start the three-year project of rebuilding what was once my home.
