My best friend got incarcerated today.

Was falsely accused. And after 2 years and a lot of money he was sentenced today for 2 years. Got taken right away, I had to watch his mom break down as they wouldn’t let her hug her son goodbye. Clinging to her inhaler I wrapped my arms right around her. Held it together for her and his father. Than broke down when I was alone. I tried my best to self care the rest of the day, but I feel like I lost a part of me today. This man is my mentor, best friend, and coleugue. The most consistent person in my life. Simone who always checked up on me to make sure I’m okay. Kept me grounded. Called me out when needed. Always kept his word. And loyal to the core. My Capricorn. The yin to my yang. We thought each other so much. I just need to vent I guess. I’m heart broken s

I'm so sorry. Hopefully with good behavior he won't have to stay a year. It's very hard to be involved at all in that kind of situation but you are doing what you can to be supportive for the family. That's all you can really do besides wait right now. It's nice he has someone so caring to help with things while he's away. And just for the sheer correspondence.

He has no chance of parole 😢. And his parents live states away from me. But yes I told them I’m here if they need me. I just am really feeling the emptiness. We both only really cared about each other aside from our family. He is a real one. The only one I trust in my life. Ughhhhhh

Well..it ain't all bad. At least he has someone to put something on his books and something to come home to. Read a book and exercise. And try to stay optimistic that it's just 2 years and not 20.

Love and peace and soul.

No shit Sherlock. I don’t know if this is coming from a genuine place or condicending place. But due to this person’s anonymity I can’t say the details. But I’ll have you know. IT IS THAT BAD. I stay movIng forward and excersizing. But it’s bad. Just another black man’s life ruined.

The system is beyond broken. Sorry for his loss. Stay strong 💪

That is so sad to read and horrible that he was falesly accused......2 years is such a very long time to be behind bars.....poor bloke

Not letting his mum hug him is vile...shame on those bastards

What were they convicted of?

I prefer not to say as to protect his anonymity.

I’m sorry to hear. Try to see the parents as often as you can, because they’re the only ones who share the same pain. You’ll get through this.

His parents love 7 hours away 😢

Everyday has been so difficult. I keep trying to distract my self. Writing to him in my journals. Trying to ignore people talking about him throwing insult to injury. Trying to ignore the gaping hole in my chest. Trying to enjoy life as for he can not. Trying for him. Trying so hard to live my best life. And drowning in my tears at the same time. I feel like a crab getting pulled back and forth by a storm in the waves. Like I can’t come up for air. To tread carefully, or stay grounded on land. With only small moments of joy that the beauty and nature brings me. With struggling to stay calm with constant turbulence. Trying not to drown.
