Not sure what to say?

May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
-Irish Blessing

I didn't realize after 6 months I could still come on here! Oh Patrick, I think of you every minute of everyday! I cry everyday because I miss and love you more than you could ever know! I talk to you all the time and go to your grave often! I would've taken your addiction for you in a heartbeat if only I could've! You were doing so wonderful for 4 years and got a great job and everything seemed perfect and I was so happy and so proud of you! Those devils came back and took you away...

I knew Patrick for a while. We met online. He was a nice person. We shared a lot in common. We had some mutual friends. He was open about his struggles but never about his addiction. I had no idea he suffered from addiction. He had a big heart, and he was sensitive. He talked a lot about his family, and he loved when I sang. He told me "One day we will be friends in real life" It didn't happen tho. We both lost touch after so many months. Life, and normal everyday things. I just found out...

Patrick, I hope you know how much we love and miss you! So much more than I could ever say! Not having you here is beyond heartbreaking and something that I can't ever even begin to explain! I never knew a human could shed as many tears as I have for you! We loved and still love you unconditionally and wish so bad things could've ended up so different that what they did! The emptiness and loneliness without you is heart shattering! Until we meet again my beautiful, kind , shy and...
