How are you preparing for your death?
Today, I thought about my late friends, again.
Read our old chats - listened to our voice notes and call recordings, viewed our old pictures together, watched our old crazy videos.
They died so young.

I thought about Tia's smile, poise & sweetness. I remember the scent of her full, long wooly dark hair, her forehead kisses, stories & poetry. I remember.

I thought about Simi; her intelligence, hugs, humor, silly dance steps, stupid fights, banters, & how she calls me 'papi', so coool. I remember.

I thought about Charly; his elegance, spoken words, he's beauty & bravery. I miss his accent. Died in a ghastly car accident. He was so sweet. I remember.

And Richie; he was kind, bold and fierce.
He died while trying to rescue a drowning lady in Russia. Yes he saved her, but he died while trying to. He went to study, got married but came back in a body bag.

I remember. I remember them all.
I see them all.
