Edward Posted: It is always painful, climbing up here because I have to bid farewell to a fallen soul. It is more painful when, say, it is the least you expect. But death has never sent a Memo, a message pinging in your phone, that it is coming with its ruthless hook to reap, does it? No. It comes when you are laughing and having fun, and it casts its evil stare at the joyous masses. It slowly tiptoes, like a fucking dark knight and reaps the people you love. Rest In Peace, Jimmy Pounds. I hope you’re with the angels making them laugh.
