Starman

Last night I heard this song, Starman,  in my head and thought of the boy next door who committed suicide in 1990, 25 years young.

He was diagnosed with schizophrenia. We always had the best conversations. He told me about his world and all the entities he met and was talking to. While he knew that in the "normal" world most people wouldn't see those creatures. And he told me a lot more, about his vision on things and things that happened to him because he was different.

But he wasn't happy. With all the voices in his head. Because of things I wasn't even aware of then or now. So he decided to leave this world.

At his funeral they played Starman by David Bowie. And I could only cry.
