Saturday morning I awoke to the news of my friend Toni passing. I cried all weekend but managed to drag myself out of bed and down to go to school.
Well that was until this never ending stream of mourning started all over again. My best friends gran passed away this morning. Yet another precious soul claimed from the earth surface. Fuck life is hard. How do you go from granny kisses to amazing grace at her funeral? It's so messed up to lose someone close to you. How do you cope? How do you stand there and say your fine when inside your bursting with tears?
The hardest part was that she wasn't even my granny... But she was in so many ways... I miss you already... Thank you for making me part of your family.
