Most would say this man died to soon, I would agree. I feel as though he was taken from me, not like he passed away but that someone stole him from my life. I guess that's selfish to think, but no matter if I was depressed while on deployment or hoping to find a "co-pilot" for the day, I could always count on him. We made plans to see and experience things together. Even if we were to get separated somehow, we would still keep in touch. Playing online video games have evolved since we were teenagers, so naturally that was the option that was going to suite us. He always treated me as if i was his little brother. There were many occasions when he was more of a guide for me, to distinguish right from wrong or just to tell me the girl I was dating is "bat-shit crazy." His voice or his presence alleviated any issues I faced. Standing at 6'2 and jet black hair past his shoulders at age 20, he was dubbed the "prince of darkness", or "chief" by many of his close friends. Always the cynic he had jokes and insight on everything, no matter our state-of-mind. He told me he loved me less than a week before his accident, and i told him the same. I've never felt the companionship or love for another man like i still feel for him. I look forward to seeing him again in the next life, because one life together was not enough.
