"Some people think I must be a very strange person. That's not true at all. I have the heart of a child... it's in a jar on my desk."
--Stephen King


"There's a moment in life
When all the years will pass by
And the eyes filled with tears we once shed
We recognize failures, the desperate cries
Of the ones who believed in our lies

Wherever I'll go you'll be with me
My first though and my last
Though we'll depart in bitterness,
One day you'll understand
Carry on, beloved maiden, mine
Cary on or we have to pay the price

Will you still wait for me
Will you still cry for me
Come and take my hand

Yesterday's memories and melodies
Are gone with the wind so sad
Snow-white her hands and golden her hair
But she's not the one out in the emptiness
Where everything's pale
There is no sign of you
I'm alone
How I wish you should be here
I'm alone
Telling me it's alright

Come rest your head

I'm alone and sadness reigns in my heart
As long as we live it won't go away
We are one, but torn apart

Will you still wait for me
Will you still cry for me
Come and take my hand

Proudly it stands
Until the worlds end
The victorious banner of love ."
--Blind Guardian 'The Maiden and the Minstrel Knight


Now as it pertains to my poetry I will say this first of all. I can be an asshole and I know it. I'm not going to sweeten up or dumb down my comments. If I don't like your poems you're going to hear about it. However I won't just say it sucks, I'll tell you what I think is wrong with it. If you don't like my comments, go cry, take some Valium and deal with it cause the only way you get better at poetry is through criticism. If you just keep praising everything and you DON'T pick it apart then people are just gonna keep getting worse and worse. That being said. I welcome all comments good or bad on my poetry, but please, don't just say "This sucks" or "This was awesome" tell me why! And be honest, no "this sucks cause you're an asshole, and an insensitive prick" I already know I am so please give me real reasons.


I am a musician so I like rhyme and rhythm in poetry, but I don't think it's necessary. I play the drums, the piano and I sing. I write lyrics as well and every now and then I get the impulse to post one of my songs on here.

I'm incredibly sarcastic, and I tend to poke fun at pretty much anything. Yeah I tend to live by the philosophy that "you shouldn't take life too seriously, no one gets out alive."
Some people call me an asshole for the things I say, but most who know me know that 95% of those things which might seem offensive, are just my own personal brand of over the top humor/sarcasm.

I'm an archer,
Shakespearian actor (I do other types of theater, but shakespearian makes me sound more impressive... or pretentious, lol),
Artist (I write, I draw, I create short films, and do photography),
Music lover (I'll listen to anything except emo, rap, country, and techno, but I don't consider any of that actual music anyways),
Gamer (yes I play D&D, I'll take rolling d20' over rolling joints any day).

And I have what might be an unhealthy obsession with both swords and dragons. I have a colletion of both. My dragon collection is made up of posters, figurines, sculptures, and the like, not ACTUAL dragons... I wish...
