Burning Grief, chapter 2
The Aftermath
Billie Joe's Diary thingy
Dec 11, 2006
It has been a year since Tre's passing, and Mike and I haven't been taking it so well. Well, what else would you say if we told you we couldn't even look into a camera without a tear or two leaking out...ok I admit, we broke down. Tre loved fucking with the camera and making funny faces. It seemed so empty being the
only two people in the lens. I hadn't even told Mike this, but I had taken to cutting myself. One thing about it: The people who think it's crazy are the ones who don't understand.
Well, they were about to.
Dec 15, 2006
Mike died this morning. Car accident with a drunk driver...he died instantly so he didn't have to suffer. Now I finally know the meaning to 'Billie Joe is Green Day'. To the general public, it was always like Mike and Tre weren't there. But enough about that.
Adi says it'll all blow over in a year or two...she always said that, and she always will. She said it when Tre died, and she says it now. But I don't listen. I took my keys, and drove over to the beach.
I stood at the edge of the salt water, getting a glimpse of my death scene. I heard a voice in my head saying, "Don't do it Bill....Don't do it." Was it Tre? Or Mike? I didn't know, but I ignored it all the same. I took the gun I always carried with me out of my jacket pocket and put it against my temple. The cool metal felt relaxing against my head, which I was about to destroy. I packed up the pressure in my finger and pulled the trigger.
I soon felt like I was flying and I didn't have any pain. I looked down to see my body be washed away by the tide, knowing it'll be back soon. I looked up to see Mike and Tre smiling at me as I flew with newly grown wings through the pearly gates of Heaven.
People always said Green Day were angels. Now they can say it literally.
