Character Poem-files: Mara Jaffray
January 3, 2012
The smart girl, the innocent
A person found in light of her pathway—
straight and narrow, no obstacles
-until the trials of youth submerge the road,
casting challenges across her way
She tries choosing a path,
not knowing she leaves
the person on the other path to walk alone.
Books and cleverness come to aid not.
Cheats and lies force her towards the path
that shouldn't be taken,
the smarter path watches her closely.
A young soul on that path,
hidden behind a wall
that had only just began to open up,
closing narrowing as she turned on to the next
So are the two pathways any really different?
One is built from riches and lies,
the other enforces blackmail and cheat.
Does the path she choose stray to help herself?
Or lead to save another?
Because the 'other' guy you tried to give a chance
He didn't care
So the moment he wished to stay out of your life
You let him...
And yet...
And yet it was his courage he gave you that rose above,
to tell others exactly what they needed to hear,
more probably the title you were blessed of when you tapped his arm,
Because only in your memory now was he in the clear
And by the end—when the 'other' man in her life
discusses the multiple attempts, endless scenarios for how to get her back,
you harden
For you do not care now finding love or not
not when it seems like everyone you know is against you

Yes. It was hugely Jara. Can you blame me?
