A tribute to Jason
We were pratically related, kindred spirits,inseperable.
we were six months apart.
Our moms were both single and best friends and spent every waking hour together--so did we.
We dreamed of who our real dads were
Jason's dad was Spiderman
My dad was "the guy who made up McDonalds".
We pretended we were statues while in the car, truly believing that people driving by thought we were statues, we posed for hours-such good actors.
He was the ring bearer and I the flower girl the day my mom got married.
And then I moved away. We both bawled that day-too young to comprehend job transfers and responsibilites.
I didnt see him again till 8 years later-we were 14.
We picked up where we left off,best buds again.
only now we complained of how lame parents were and how cool it would be to drive. the time went too fast and promises to write and call were made but never kept--and I wonder if that could have changed anything.
He went off track. Did too many drugs and caused his mom unbearable grief-but it couldnt even compare to the grief she must now bear
because now he's gone.
My first best friend,gone at 22. Its too big to comprehend for me. I havnet seen him in forever and wish SO MUCH that I would have gone to see him more, been a friend when he needed one.
I'll miss you Jason. You were my childhood. You are my memories of Tennessee and now your gone.
