will feel this way forever.

I was fine until I watched the Today show interview with Tyka this morning and the preview opening of home as a museum. Urgh. I feel the tears coming on again. The thought of going to his house without him on this earth is shattering to me, however, I know that sometime next year, I plan to make the trip to MN to see it.

I couldn't make it to the official tribute concert but I've been seeing pics/clips on social media and reading reviews. My hearts hurting and the tears are falling again. Other people singing the songs he should have been singing. I understand they loved him and were celebrating his life, as he should be celebrated, but it was bitter sweet. Miss you Prince. Wish I could have told him what he meant to me. The memories live on sweet Prince.

Yes! Nobody can sing his songs like HIM.

i can't think about it... i can't even listen to his music

i don't cry or anything (i did a few times initially)... but there's this kind of numb sadness that hits me when i think about him

I just recently started listening to his music again, but off and on, not regularly, because certain songs pierce my heart, and get the tears flowing. I think of him often, and there are times that I still can't believe that he's gone. Like many of you, I miss him so much.

Its a surreal feeling that he gone, and it still hurts

They see no end in sight to their sadness

This says it all really. I can't believe we've already gone six months without him. I can honestly say I feel no different now than I did on that day. I was fortunate enough to go to Minni for the tribute and PP. I thought maybe I'd leave with some sort of weight lifted off my shoulders, but I didn't. It made me miss him even more. Just being there, and being surrounded by people who love him made it such an incredible experience. There was a certain feeling that I had while I was there, a calmness I guess you could say. I'm back home now and sadly, that feeling is gone.

NEW YORK (AP) — Have you ever missed someone so much that even the thought of them made you burst into tears?

[SNIPPED]

Maria Newport still cries regularly over the loss. She broke up with her boyfriend soon after Prince was found dead April 21. When she heard about it, "I just started wailing. Like, fetal position, in my bed."

Been there. Done that. Spent 2 hours in that state on Saturday morning on 4/23. Felt like my heart had been ripped out and life had caved in on me.

Actually, I had an episode last week. Lasted for several minutes but still very intense. Bottomless well of profound regret and grief. A part of me can face it; another part of me cannot.

I'm almost embarassed to admit in the back of my mind there was this tiny sliver of hope he would miraculously appear at one of the events around mpls this past week and reveal that the last 6 months were all a publicity stunt. But I quickly erased them from my mind soon as they appeared. [Edited 10/16/16 15:14pm]

Don't worry. I've wished the same thing.
