{non:inspirational: NAT}

i missed Natalie's viewing on purpose.

i guess i didn't want to see her that way

(laying on a casket)

as my last image of her.

i would rather remember how friendly, 

talkative, and open of a friend she was.

i would rather remember the fun times

we had at girl's camp-

though that was almost 10 years ago.

i would rather remember our walks together

down the river

(even though she could barely walk);

or the pink party where

she did my hair for me.

despite the very little memories

i have of her,

i will choose to always remember her

that she was my friend

and i will see her again someday.

lastly, i'll def miss reading her blog.
