A year ago, we lost a voice,
the voice of broken souls.
We lost a man
who gave his heart
again and again and again.
We lost a soul
who was fighting too many demons,
who refused to let darkness destroy him,
we lost a man who lost a war.
On July 20, we remember Chester Bennington,
whose voice has resonated with millions.
We hear the music and we cry,
we watch his antics and laugh with tears in our eyes.
We remember his kind heart and determination,
and carry that spirit in us with every warm gesture we make.
Rock in Peace, Chester. We miss you.

I'm a little late, but yesterday marked a year since Chester Bennington of Linkin Park passed away. I wanted to write something in his memory.
