My Dearest MaryJane


Thank you for all the late-night talks; Long insightful walks. For always being the one thing that kept me partially sane; When my whole world thunders and rains. I appreciate all the laughs you have brought; The shenanigans that thankfully weren’t caught.   Thank you for being my rock MaryJane; Though my love for you may seem bitterly arraign. Most of all thank you for controlling my anxiety; And keeping benzos from being a life’s priority. No matter what you always knew how to make me feel better. For that I dedicate you this thank you letter.   I value all the friendships you have bestowed in my life past these years; Especially the ones no longer here… I am not saying the only good people in my life are because of you; But damn you have brought good company through. You introduced me to old souls; Never drove me from my goals. Many have stated their opinions of you: I don’t care though; to me you will always be true. After all these years; I am almost in tears. You have always been by my side; Always along for the ride. I temporarily must part my ways; Because the legal system claims our friendship is not okay. To me you were more than pot; You were my damn rock.   Thank you MaryJane.   -C. Jackson.
