I cant say I mourned his death but for me it is the realisation that now famous people from when i was a teenager will die.Liam Payne's death made me feel both old and sad. I have some inkling what a lot of the young people mourning him are going through because I suspect for many it will be the first time a contemporary be that someone they had admired or knew has died and that first brush with mortality can hit you like a f***ing Mack truck. A guy I went to primary school with brother in law drove into the back of a petrol tanker on the road back from Melbourne when I was about fifteen and I was numb for weeks even though we were never particularly close. Nowadays conversations begin too often with news about someone's parents dying or someone's health issues.
For context i was born a month after Liam.
