and the suns always rising in the sky somewhere
i intended this lj entry to be all about how pumped i am for the against me! and murder by death show tomorrow.
but instead, my mother told me some sad news.
this boy named zachary house i went to school with passed away on the 17th.
he was a year behind me, and i remember seeing him since middle school.
he suffered from muscular dystrophy and was in a wheelchair i believe most of his life.
i remember seeing liam riding the back of his electric wheelchair down the leavitt halls with zachary leading the way.
i remember in high school playing baseball with him on the tennis courts behind the middle school.
ive tried talking to him a few times, but he was always really quiet.
shy maybe? maybe embarrassed? he was just very quiet.
i was always a little bummed when id say something to him and he wouldnt really respond.
after i heard the news, i started to brush my teeth while "waking is still honest" by against me! was playing.
and i cried a little bit.
i couldnt help it.
death is so powerful.
rest in peace, zachary house.
