So I was thinking of going to Nate's funeral but plane tickets are $300. Yikes. I was like, "I feel bad I need to do something." At first I was going to get a sympathy card, but I hate buying them, they never say what I want them to, so I wrote a poem. Admittedly, it is really cliche.

Something you lose is only something once gained,
The better it was, the greater the pain.
There is a spot where something great belongs,
Even when it‘s lost, it‘s never gone.

The physical is gone, of course, this is true,
Look inside you will see him with you.
Love, unlike the body, always lives on,
I hope this knowledge will make you strong.

If anyone was wondering, no, there wasn't a note. Apparently he got in a huge fight with his girlfriend the night before. She was the one who found him. I feel REALLY bad for her.

Something I was thinking of earlier is how much it would freak me out to go to a young person's funeral. I realized have never been to a funeral for a person who was less than middle aged. Nate was a few months younger than me, it just doesn't seem right for a life to end that quick.

It sucks, too, because I was kinda anxious about school and stuff and kinda depressed for a few days, and then this happens. Meh.
