I can't believe it has already been more than a day,
it feels just like seconds ago I heard the news
You were taken away too soon,
And you left us here
to cry and lament over your loss.

I will never understand why you did it,
I will never know what you were thinking,
I will never know what is that present you bought for me,
when we talked just mere days ago.

My heart breaks everytime I think of you,
I shed a tear everytime I see a picture of you,
It all seems like a nightmare that I cant shrug off,
It seems like you are never coming back.

Dearest Roachie,

I can't even remember when and why you got that name. Perhaps it was because of the dirty house you were staying in, and your love for cockroaches. But the name stuck on, just as how u used to call me "niu niu", in your funny voice, making me laugh every other time. I can't seem to remember when I first saw you, can't remember how we started talking, but I remembered us being good friends. I remember you calling so often, and always offering to call me since you claimed you were the working one. I remember how we used to talk nonsense and make jokes out of everything. I remember how conversations would be full of laughter and happiness. You were there when I needed someone to talk to. I am sorry roachie if i wasn't there for you :( My bad, I should have listened to you more, saw you more often and talked to you more. But you are not coming back, are you?

I remembered how we randomly met up in Midvalley, and you pretended to be gay. How we ogled and checked out boys, and you played along without any complain. I remember you pink girly phone with the butterfly. I want to call you right about now, but noone is going to answer it right? :( I can go on writing about all that you are, and how ever much I miss you. I can't believe you are gone. My tears are falling as I write this.

Pravin, there will never be a friend better than you, there will never be a man who can accomplish all that you have. You have been more than a friend, you were family to all of us. I truly miss you, and I am devasted by your death.

Rest in peace my dearest Roachie.
May the Lord guide and guard your soul
May the angels hold your hand as you dance in Heaven
You will be alive in our thoughts and in our hearts,
So long as we can breathe, we will miss you.
