Quote:
I feel like a piece of my childhood has gone away. I don't grieve for who he became. I grieve for who he was when I was young, innocent, and gah gah over this white hot guy on the brand new thing called "MTV".
This is who I, too, grieve for. Michael Jackson was just a few years older than me. I remember The Jackson 5 tv show, I remember "little Michael Jackson" performing and secretly being in love with him. Secretly because a white girl wasn't suppoed to be in love with a black boy back then.
I mourn the person and the great talent he once was. Good bye Michael. We'll love and miss you.
