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

Now imagine that feeling drenched in purple rain.

Nearly six months after the shocking death of Prince, some superfans are still grieving hard, creating tearful memes, snapping up "I Still Miss Prince" T-shirts featuring a despondent Charlie Brown, sharing photos and seeking solace in an explosion of fresh concert videos and unreleased music on YouTube.

Yes, I read the article and it is so true.

I can't even read the article because I still can't believe what happened.

I hope to make the trip to Paisley Park one day. Super to hear they added some dates for you all in the States.

Yes, his connection to his fans was very unique...like I said before, his sincerity in his art is what has so many of us still hurting bad after 6 months.

Yes.

Same.

Still mourning... six months is not very long.

My heart has been aching ever since April. It just seems like it's not real. I wish it were a joke.

Some days are better than others. This ain't one of them.

Aww truly sad and all true

The world changed for me on April 21, 2016..

indeed and will never be the same

Brokenhearted... ... No closure

I am still in mourning. It is getting a little better for me but like most of you I have those days. I know a lot of you all have mixed feelings about Paisley Park being opened right now, and I do understand. Personally for me I feel more compelled than ever to visit even if I have to go by myself. For me I feel if I do go it would help me more in my personal mourning process. I have always wanted to go there and it's sad it took his tragic passing to push me to go. Sux. For you all out there still mourning you do what you gotta do and feel how you gotta feel - we are all in this together. Prince was (is) a special man, artist and creator and he will never ever be forgotten!

To be honest music sounds different to me now that Prince is gone...all music

Sometimes I can't listen to anything...just the sounds of silence. And I don't mean Simon & Garfunkel.

Seems like I hardly put my headphones on lately and when I play Prince I get teary eyed

I want to change his wallpaper on my laptop but I just cant

I take his music in small doses. And on the bad days I do something else. At least I know his music will always be there...

Youre right I think that sometimes we forget that the music is what touched our hearts in the first place

Same here - I dont cry every day now like I was, but there are moments it just hits me and I find the tears falling again with a "I cant believe hes not here" going through my mind. Life changed for me that day and it has affected my outlook & realisation that we are all mortal - it is very hard to explain, but there was a change in me somehow. I think this is a loss I will never stop feeling. I listen to his music and watch his videos and enjoy them until that moment when the thought "I cant believe hes not here" flashes through my mind. I cannot listen to anyone else as they are all so pale in comparison (even though I try).There is a definate hole inside me and nobody else can fill it. I know it sounds stupid as I did not know him personally and he did not know I even existed - but you cannot change how you feel, what your head says and what your heart feels is often quite different. I still have not been able to listen to the last Atlanta shows though - but feel soon it will be time..........it is just finding the right moment to sit and listen to them in private. Sorry for the long reply guys............
