from the fire that burns in desire

♪♫ Feuer Frei! - Rammstein


I can't believe its been three years...

These pictures are so old. I was fifteen. Nearly six years ago. I'm pretty they were taken on the last day of school. Later that night, we got vodka and rum, then played card games and watched horror movies until 8:00 am.

I met you at school after you sat next to me and said that my AC/DC shirt was cool. We instantly became friends. You were wild, unique and not afraid to be yourself. You helped me come out of my shell, taught me so many things and introduced me to the friends that I have now. I wish I could thank you. I wish I could see you one last time.

I still remember the time that I went to your grandmother's house and you made me hot dogs and we watched A Clockwork Orange. I remember when we sat outside the mall and yelled random things at people who walked by. I remember getting so high that I was trippin' balls (thinking clowns were coming after me), and you made sure I got home safely.

All the times we got high, all the crazy stories you told, walking west after losing my bus pass, all the fries we got at McDonald's after getting stoned, all the phone conversations, all the heart-to-hearts, going kayaking, going to your graduation, going to your house and hanging out with your family a bunch...I miss all those, so very much. I'll cherish the memories forever and never forget you.

You still visit me in my dreams sometimes and tell me that you're alright. You tell me to be happy and move on. But its so hard to do that. I haven't fully healed. I may never fully heal. A piece of my heart will always be missing. You took it with you. And that is why I took that necklace you gave me and took one of the charms off of it, taped it to a letter and put it on your box of ashes to be buried with you. I have the other charm. And I always will.

Rest in peace Nick ♥
I love you like a brother and I miss you so much.
