The epilogue as promised.
His mother wanted me to "save" him, but was there really anything I could save him from? She said she didn't want him going to hell, that god hates gays but I just ran off. Not before saying there was nothing wrong with him. He was perfect, he always was.
I couldn't save him from her though. She sent him to a conversion camp for three reasons. She was ashamed and she thought It could take the "gay" out of him. She also didn't want him anywhere near Jeremiah [ the guy he loved ].
Like I said, I ran away, to a world where anything didn't matter. To a world where everything was the way I wanted. To a world where I didn't need the boy I loved. Where I became involved with the wrong crowd and became something I never thought I could be.
I immersed into myself so deeply, I forgot who I was. An without Jasper, I got a new drug. A real drug this time. I can admit I needed help but I wouldn't reach out for anyone.
That was until jack.
[The sequel, "Mercury", is out ]

PoetryNo one understood him. No one knew where he came from. No one knew what he was like or who he was. No one knew why he did the the things he did. But everyone knows who he is. To put it simply, he's Jasper. [story told in verse]
