Two friends in one summer, God? I know that you had a plan for David, and that you were involved every step of the way, but I can't believe that you planned for this to happen to Nick. I can't believe that this is a punishment, or that it was "his time to go." That doesn't make sense. It's got to be a weird twist of circumstance, huh, Lord?

I know he's with you now, God. And I know you COULD have saved him, if things had worked out that way and you had wanted to. And that's enough, I think.

I feel like Shak, Rak, and Benny, only without the song and with more pain.
