For Jared Michael “Jetz” Bruce
Jared,
My Love, You were taken away from us early, but your legacy will forever live
on. You were and are loved and missed more than you could ever imagine. To me
you were the only guy I could really call my brother, you were also my
therapist, my go to guy. You were another reason I would look forward to going
to English, lunch and US history. You made me smile like no other. You were my
father at times you were very strict on who I dated, you didn’t like half of
the guys I talked to. You would always say you are way too good for them you
deserve better; you helped me realize that I was a good person; you made me
feel like it too. You brought out my talents as well, I would never sing in
front of people but thanks to you that changed fairly quickly, you told me to
start doing YouTube videos but I was too afraid, but now I feel as if I need to
do the videos so that you can be proud of me. The first time I sung for you,
you smiled from ear to ear you said that my singing talent was a gift and that
I need to use it.
At times I would say things about myself that you didn’t
like, I will never forget the time that I called myself fat you Flipped on me,
you said don’t say that again, and I won’t. If I needed you at any time I know
I could count on you and call on you. Now a day’s it’s hard to find a guy that
can just be friends and not take it you know “that” route. You Are My Brother,
You are my Heart, You are and always will be My Best Friend, and there will
never be another Jared Bruce in My Life Time. Everything I do I think of you, A
song came on at prom I threw up Jetz faster than I could think. Every picture I
take I feel like I need to throw up Jetz. Your name is being tattooed on My
Shoulder, Your pictures are everywhere including In my room.
Everybody knows
how much I cared for you, and still do. I told you that I loved you every
chance I got because I meant it, I just hope you knew I meant it. You were the
only person I had for the longest and when I lost you half of my heart went
with you. I’ve lost a lot of people and you were the shoulder I would cry on, the
first one I would call or text if something drastic happened, but this time you
never replied. That’s how I knew you were gone I screamed your named as loud as
I could I couldn’t even breath still to this day I pray that you just come back
and yell out OO OO Okay.
But I know you are in a better place no suffering or
coming to school we all know all you ever did was try not to fall asleep. You
were always in your phone or on Twitter I miss seeing you tweet every other
second. I miss you so much sitting in the computer lap and not being able to act
up with you kills me. I Love You Jared Michael “Jetz” Bruce and Don’t You
Forget That. I can’t wait to see your smiling face again.
This is beautiful, Esyence. You know he's always watching out for you. <3
ReplyDeleteEsyence--my heart still breaks for his family. There are days I still look around the classroom for him. I cannot imagine how difficult his death would be if he were a close friend, as he was for you. Thanks for sharing this piece.
