on this day of July 18th 2020 at 10pm you ran across my mind. I miss you , your laugh, and your encouraging words. I miss how you use to tell the honest truth to all your friends no matter what because that's how you showed that you cared. you were not only a friend to me but somewhat like a sister. I love you and keep watching over me Destiny.
