Rourke Pays Tribute To Domino Harvey

According to an article my friend Stephy sent me, Mickey paid tribute to Domino Harvey at her memorial service on Friday July 1st in L.A. It was an emotional affair for Mickey as he reporedly fought back tears whilst he spoke of the deep bond he felt with her.He met her while researching his role for the upcoming movie Domino, and they clicked. The female Rourke persay? He described her as fun, charismatic and the moment they met they really hit it off. Mickey went on to say that he would ring her up, or she would ring him up, they'd meet to toss back a few drinks and blab till all hours.

How fucking sad. Im about speechless, but will try and put my broken thoughts into words. I dont know how Ms. Harvey found herself on the path that she was allegedly heading down. No one will really ever know the reasons she took the road that she allegedly did, except her. Did she ever wonder about who or what she had become? Did she one day look in the mirror and wonder how the hell she ended up where she was? Was it a concious choice or a gradual decline? Was she just trying to do her best to survive in this vicious, cold hearted world? Did she feel as though she was standing in one spot and the world was like speeding around her? Was pain the only real emotion left that she could understand and feel? Please understand Im not under any circumstances trying or implying anything, these are just my fucked up thoughts for tonight.....another of mommas lessons...never, ever, disrespect those no longer on this plane of exsistance.

At any rate, I feel totally shitty for the loved ones Domino left behind, and her too. All of us, in some way, shape or form, have felt the feeling of hitting rock bottom. The feeling of, sitting in the bottom of a well, looking up and wishing we could climb out. The feeling of, why should I get out of bed? Today is just going to be the same as yesterday.The feeling of utter dispair.

I feel horrible for Mickey too, losing yet another person he obviously held close to his heart. In the end though, I guess everyone goes away. Hats off to Mickey though, for being able to stand up and respectfully say a few words for his departed friend, no matter how much pain it caused him.

Sometimes ya gotta put the lime in the coconut and just let it flow.
