The night before angel came to my house crying. Poured out to me how all he wanted was to be loved. Hits me till this day. I lived with my mom and sisters only. I made him sleep in my room on my bed and i took the couch.(never happened before) what a beautiful human being. What a godly heart. Sucked into a excuse of a support system. (Shame on you) bro that was 2009. And still i think and care for you. All my heart was to you was love. I cried and cried and cried in the hospital. When i was approached by the person you ALWAYS referred to about easly sueing and we were gonna be million airs. A millisecond didnt pass when i said get out of my face. Bro im hurt.
