About Me

I'm Charles. I LOVE ramen noodles and Japanese anime. I consider myself to be a "jack-of-all-trades" kind of guy; but above all, I hope to become a published author with several books worthy of reading.


I come from a broken home, both sides re-married to others, and of course my dad passed away a couple years ago a week before Memorial Day. We buried him the day after Memorial Day. I have one brother by blood, and several step-brothers and step-sisters from both sides of the wall. I'm real close with a lot of members from my family and I love them all very much. I even have a few friends close enough to my heart that I consider family as well.


I'm a very intelligent guy. I'm often very humorous and sarcastic. As it turns out, I can be cocky at times. I tend to get along very well with everyone once they get to know me. I also happen to be a nice guy, apparently the type that girls will settle with AFTER they've had their share of "bad boys". It sucks, I know, but it's how the game goes.

My Interests

RAMEN NOODLES, Writing stories, dragons, movies, video games, the occasional partying, billiards, books, both young and mature women (at least the mature ladies love me more!), art, and music just to name a few interests.

I'd like to meet:

As we travel the roads of our journey, we come across many people full of diversity, race, creed, and beliefs. Many are young and old, smart and dumb. We find those who are none the wiser, companions, friends, lovers, acquaintances, but the most important people that we meet are the ones we hold dear and close to heart. No matter how alone we will feel, there is always somebody there with us.

In other words, I'm willing to meet and I love to meet new people anywhere, any time.

I’m dying (on the inside)

Every day is another road less traveled.  Every night is a road already taken.  Moments I spent sticking around, I found myself wanting.  Hours I spent walking, I found myself losing.&n...

Isn’t life grand?

Please, tell me the truth.  Life is grand, right?  I mean, how does one live through life not knowing that he/she is loved conditionally? "Plenty of fish in the sea", "There's someone for ev...

My Name is on the Door.

The time has changed, we are lost without. The paint has chipped away, the pain is surely not. Within carvings I adorn, my name is on your door. When you open up the door, nothing stands but forgotten...

Tortured minds, miserable lives

Why do I awaken, come the early dawn of the violent screams?  Why can't I glide through sweet dreams without pain?  My body constantly strives for the peaceful slumber of rejuvenation, but m...

Life

You're never gonna take me back, with the life to learn. Magical beings and shooting stars are just too absurd. Spending time away from home, always searching stolen gold. Fantasies and tall tales are...

I am happy, right?

So, I got my hair done and my left forearm inked...  I really love the new look.  So... am I happy?  I guess I'm not.  I have no regrets and I thank both Chris Long (Fairborn Tatto...

Awaken from a long, awaited slumber

A timeless ghost, lost dwelling in the Shadows of Forgotten.

Here I sit, pondering my next move while the cat continues to playful bite at my feet.  I should be getting ready for work, take my antibiotic pills, and on my way to work. I know there are other...

Fire, fire, I'm on fire.

As I look out upon the horizon while the sun rises and sets, I can't help but wonder why my life is a cornucopia of dreams.  Every day I reach for the sky and every night I reach for th...

song in my head

I've always said, to follow your heart, But never lose your mind. I've always believed my heart is alive, But it has never beat so true. Fools come rushing in, But they could never make it far. O...
