Jared Poem by Carolyn Vuletic

Jared

Rating: 4.8


Cape Town boy
So chilled, so fine
You're damaged goods, everyone knows
You facinate me so

Mangled by the meth
Up to the north you came
Weeks of binging
Taken it's toll

Intense, uncertain, beautiful
Master of manipulation
I leave my love
You need me so much more

Us together a bad bad combination
And soon all I know is you
People soon know too much
But you make me shake

I know you are leaving all the time
But I will have you as long as I can - never exclusively
You get clean, you make us all glow
We are so proud

Early morning, day you go back to the blue
You consume me...
Over and over and over

I watch you dress
You kiss me goodbye
You're late for your flight
Naked in your bed

You change me
I regret nothing
That smile still gets me - every god damn time

- heard that the meth found you ... again
I

Ooh! Moving stuff, and a subject that needs more exposure in today's world. I like the fact that you manage to get him clean, only for him to be back on it as soon as he leaves your side. Very harsh thing, reality.
