R.I.P.
One year ago today
You decided to go
Sometimes I’m in disbelief
I didn’t know
So we weep
With tears for you
As an ocean opens up
To swallow you
Gravity reversed, taking things away
While your demons on fear fed
Maybe thinking you’d find
a place for your head
Did you feel cold
And lost in desperation?
When you were standing
in the wake of devastation
We wonder what you’d say
About this grief unraveled
Maybe ‘weep not
For roads untraveled’
In the wastelands of today
When there’s nothing left to lose
You showed us how to survive
That’s a truth not a ruse
No I don’t know
Why is everything so heavy
How much water is too much
For this splintering levee
You helped so many stay afloat
And keep climbing their ladder,
Wherever you are please know
In the end, it really did matter.

Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington dies aged 41
all-aboard-the-misery-machine:
No words…
I cant articulate what this news has done to me. His voice and the sound of Linkin Park urged me past some of my darkest moments, and eventually became the recurring soundtrack to my life.
Chester screamed and sang -ironically-what i could not articulate then.
Everything feels so flat and useless to say, rest in peace, always remembered, condolences.
I’m just going to sit here crying, and pray your loved ones are together able to get through this, Chester. You deserved better.
