I don’t say anything about things like this, ever, but my childhood favorite person is dead, my whole childhood, and I feel I have to tell everyone that’s a directioner on here and follows me, that I know we’re all grieving, I know we’re all SO upset about Payno, and I don’t think I’ll ever get over it. None of us who truly loved him will.
He was such an important part of my life as a kid, and as a teenager as their music and his album helped me get through some really tough times, and I may not have supported what he did to maya, but I supported the man he was. I supported that he was such a fundamental piece of my life. He always will be the reason I’m here. I have never felt more upset about a death of someone (a celebrity, that it) than I am about Liam Payne. We didn’t need to actually know him to grieve like we are. He was apart of a lot of our childhoods. We grew up with them. We didn’t need to know him or them personally. We already do know him.
He was struggling, really hard. And he left us thinking the world hated him. And some do. I will FOREVER be angry at all of those people who relentlessly bullied and attacked him for the past, while he actively getting help for all of his problems. He was doing so good. Then Maya had to post and now look at what’s happened. The past is the past.
I will forever be grateful for and so proud of him, no matter what people say about him.
But he left behind a 7 year old son, a son who will never see his father again. A son who looked up to him. Bear will always be in my prayers and thoughts.
I will forever miss you, Payno️
I love you, Liam James Payne. Our Payno. Our Leeyum. Our “Daddy Dorectioner”. Our childhood.
