Michael, may you rest in peace. I'm so upset and shocked and is still in shock.
Today has been one of the most saddest days of my Life.
I do not want you to go, Michael.
I still I'm in denial about your transition and I refuse to belief and
I am so heartbroken and in complete disbelief and
Why and Why and Why O Why?
And
May you Rest well, Michael.
and
May you rest, Well, Michael.
and My heart is just so, so, so, broken.
and I yearned to see to see you grow old and be a witness to your own legend, Michael.
I have always rooted for you secretely and permanently and here you leave us so
promptly, so young, Michael.
I love you and I wanted to see you be here/
I wanted to see you be here and I know you always will be but I wanted to see you help nurture all those would-be Michaels yet to come and/or already existing.
My heart is so BROKEN with shock at the news of your passing, Michael.
May you be well/
May you sleep well, MJ.
Sleep well.
I will never forget you and I will not and MAY the spirits and the ancestors and the GOD's receive you well and may they welcome you.
and James Brown will watch out for you, out there, Michael/
and Billie Holiday will make you feel at home/
Isaac Hayes and Nina Simone and Fela Kuti and Frank Sinatra
and Louis Armstrong and T. Monk and Elvis P. and Jimi Hendrix and Bob Nesta Marly
and Marvin G. and Miles D. and Duke E. and Ray Charles and all those who have had to go before you will look out for you and welcome you calmly.
and so Goodbye, Michael.
and so Farewell, Michael.
and so Sleep well, Michael.
But I am so sad and so sad and so SADDENED of your passing and is still in denial and I'm secretly hoping that you are only taking a temporary nap and that may be we/I will wake up tomorrow morning to hear that you have awaken from this nap because I honestly do not want you to go, just yet, and I want you to be here and I am so heart broken.
