R.I.P. James Simms.... aka LJ
LJ... more than anything in the world right now i wish you would come back! i cant believe youre gone & i still cant accept that right now. I wish i got to know you better, like how Jessica & JP knew you, but i knew you well enough to say that "I love you, I miss yOu, and I wish this accident never happened".... from the naps we took together during movies in Mr. Truax's World History class to the copying of notes & help on tests, to the progress reports we compared to each other, and to the group projects we did on Iraq w/ JP... from the simple "wassup" in hallways and the hugs we gave. you were always so nice. when i found out this morning it was a great shock. it finally sank in as i burst out crying, half-believeing what i heard... the fact that youre gone is a huge impact & a great shock that nobody expected. i guess thats what its all about... the fact that you never know when you'll lose someone. that's why you have to tell someone how you feel or you'll never get the chance once its gone. I liked you in the beginning of the school year... Im not sure if you knew, but from our stares & glances across the room i think you had a clue. another thing is the person you'd never expect to be in love w/ you is Elizabeth "Lizard" Lopez. I havent been able to call her yet... been tryin to get a hold of her all day. Im sure she has found out by now and must be almost cryin as hard as i have been all day. I'd cry my eyes out & fall asleep, only to wake up later & realise & remember what happened & cry myself to sleep once again. Im sure both Jessica's, Tracy, Ladan, and many more people who knew you 4 so many years and those who had you for a friend or even classmate cried their eyes out today. If only tears could bring you back... If I had any wish, I would wish you back... If only my birthday was 22 days earlier... but i wouldnt expect something like this to happen... *sigh* wat if u wore your seatbelt?... wat if the window was closed?... wat if the driver was more careful?.. wat if i killed the other driver so this never happened?... so many What If's... LJ I want you to know that nothing & nobody would ever replace you in our hearts... I LOVE YOU LJ!!!
This is what i wrote to him... i didnt even get to take any pictures w/ him... and he was in 2 much of a hurry after playin basketball to sign my pants... the only thing i have to remember him left by is our project(if its not trashed by now) and just my memories.
+ Sonny got a hold of me around 2/3. He woke up an hour ago to find out from his dad he had 10 fone calls. I asked him who else he talked to & if he found out about LJ. He said no, and he called me first & so i told him. he was hella surprised & asked LJ who. I said LJ... Lil James... James Simms... he would not believe me & asked me to put it on something. I said I put that on everything. I sounded so sure. Like I knew for a fact. even tho i wasnt as sure as i souded cuz i didnt even know for a fact & i shouldn't, didnt, wouldnt, and couldnt have sounded so sure. He was hella sad & asked me more questions that i couldnt answer & didnt have answers to. He said he didnt even know if he wanted to go to the funeral cuz its too sad. i didnt even think that far yet. should i go? I really want to go because he was my friend, and its a sign of respect. i have never gone to a funeral before, but if i go, and i see his body there, then it would ensure the fact that he's dead... that he's really dead & i cant do anything about it...
+ juss talked to Lula. she told me that Jessica (and think Ladan) was on the fone w/ LJ's mom. She said we dont have to wear black, we can wear ordinary school clothes to the funeral. but if im guna go ima wear black.. its respect.. i aint guna be the only one wearing normal clothes...
+ didnt go to evelyns bday party. mutha fukkin claires sent me a stupid fukkin $218 bill. my mom says i have to pay myself. if i dont then i have to go to court & then juvee. i have $8..... my life is screwed.
