These are just some thoughts of mine, stop reading when you get the gist of it:
You were many things, to me and those around you.
You were a comet, violently painting the space you used with such pretty colors that I never could look away, even when it hurt to watch your beauty.
Your aura seemed to wrap around me like the blanket that I wore when I was first brought into this world, like my first ever home, you truly were.
Your love and care that made up said aura kept me strong even in the face of my darkest hours, oh how could I ever have made it past all of that without the likes of you.
Your smile lit up the world with such ease, never once did it fail at making my mood better.
Your ocean eyes had such intense waves, that I often found myself getting so lost in them for hours at a time.
Your touch, I never felt that, but I think it could have stopped my hands from shaking and helped quell the storm within my mind that surged with uneasiness.
Your very presence seemed to be heaven on earth, wished I could have experienced it a lot more.
Your kindness was a sort of sweetness that I never knew I needed in life, balanced out the saltiness that I was.
Your ability to always see the good in me allowed me to realize that perhaps, I truly could be more than just the sum of my parts.
Your reliability made me forget just how helpless I had been before, always one to help others but never had someone to help me when I needed it.
I never was quite sure if you truly were just another person or some sort of angel sent my way to save me, even though I've never been a man of faith.
Thank you, Ashtray Petting Zoo.
