Dear Gerard,
Drake's lyrics instantly take me to my memories of you in high school.
"I only love my bed and my mama. I'm sorry"
This was quintessential you. LOL. Another stupid thing etched in my mind now that you are gone. Before you passed it was one of the conversations I intended to have with you. I remember the Kendrick Lamar inspired shirt you had and I felt like you needed a Drake inspired one as well.
Do you remember the song, Shawty Swing My Way? I can't help but smile as I remember your "stirring wheel" dance. That was our favorite car song in high school. Thinking back on it it probably wasn't the best idea to dance while driving a stick-shift but we were invincible. Or so we thought. I can't help but think that your invincibility is what kept you quiet. Telling myself that that was stupid on your part gives me two seconds of relief from my pain. Nothing more than two seconds because I quickly dismiss the thought. I don't want to be angry with you even if it means I will miss you less.
Thinking about it now, you were invincible....you are invincible. Your love and charisma is unmatched, it cannot be destroyed, and it will transcend time. Look at that, once again you were right even when you were wrong.
I miss you.
