Looking at u looking at me looking at me looking at you. To be seen by Caroline was to be celebrated, assured, and it was so deeply comforting yet scared the shit out of me because I did not think I deserved that. We got to know each other in the densest of times, and in moments we never thought to take pictures because what we shared, what was said in the dark of my room in mental health slumber parties, lonely night arb walks, and in art classes where I sat in my towel and you had your snacks that you were so proud of. I love you, Caroline. You were ready for me before I was ready for myself. If you were a close friend of Caroline, and would like access to a group chat where people are sharing memories, photos, and post-funeral grief plans - let me know.
