I was around here on the board since I searched desperately on June 25th night when I saw the new about his death. I didn't have the strenght to join.Then I was here with you all, at the live memorial service, crying with you all...being here for hours, looking at the memorial, reading your posts during it, thinking that at least I was not alone, that in the whole world there were people who cried as I did, who grieved as I did...
I first came into Michael's music when I was 5 years old. Yes. And not only liking it, but adoring it, adoring Michael. I knew his songs by heart, I was looking at concerts with him that my mother was bringing me on video tapes, I was not just a child who liked a band or a singer, for me it was serious and it was very deep.At that age.No one could believe my love for his music was real, but they have me here, after 17 years, saying again how I love him.I have to thank him for everything everything, because he was the one who made me realize at that very young age what music means for me; it's my life completely. Since then, I always loved Michael. There are more than 17 years. Never ever I could forget what he means for me. He is a genious, originality in person, talent, and a huge huge soul. I wanted to join here, to let you know that I will never, never stop loving Michael. I want to be here, to have this place forever like all Michael boards. I simply can't understand why because he is not in our world, people should "go on" and "live without him". It's not like that... You just need to heal your souls, and after you do this, you'll see that you can be near Michael and his music forever, no matter what. I know I do, I know I will.
I almost can't talk about him and use the past tense, I always use the present...For me Michael is not dead, he will never be.. He will always be in my heart, forever, always.Those hours when I looked at the memorial service I cried like I lost my brother, I cried since his death almost everyday thinking about him and what he meant for me since I was a child. Never ever I will forget him, he is so alive in my heart, that nothing can take him from there.
I want to have this place as alive as before, to see boards and sites as alive as before, to talk about him, to listen to his songs, everything as before...I just can't throw away 17 years of my life, I can't throw away the one and only who made me see what music means for me since I was 5. Never ever...So I am here..greet you all, and let's keep together... always
