Today is Lensey Butler's funeral. I was hoping I wouldn't have to say that about her, or any of my friends, for a long time, but here we are. It was a tragic death, but suicides can only be so tragic. It wasn't that she died in a car crash, or someone broke into her house in the middle of the night and slit her throat. She made the decision to die ( Read more... )

I feel bad for not going to the funeral; but, when I thought about it, I guess I just didn't want to feel like I was acting out a part.

I hardly knew Lensey. I can say she was extremely nice to me when I saw her once in a blue moon. We would talk about things like school or a book for a moment and then say no more.

Still, I feel like I should have gone for Steven's sake. I haven't been able to reach him, which might be a good thing because solitude can be good during times like this; however, it can also be bad.

yeah i can understand totally, and i'm sure he does too. no reason feigning sadness for someone you really didn't know.
he's pretty upset though, but he's a strong boy, so i hope he'll be fine.

I'm sorry to hear about your friend. This was a very well written and thoughtful post - you seem to really have a good head on your shoulders.

thank you. she died during the weekend so i've had a lot of time to think about it all.

Not to say that anybody who went was acting a part...

Fuck, I just feel like a tremendous ass now. I just know that I don't hang out with you all much anymore, and I didn't want to be intrusive and look like I only felt the need to come around during desperate times or that I was as close to Lensey as all of you might have been.

no no don't worry about it dude. i mean, she was really just an acquaintance to you, you're in your right.
