About Me


My name is Jeremy, i'm 23 years old and most people tell me that I belong in another decade. They usually tell me it's the 50's. I have to agree, though i'm not entirely certain why. Maybe i've read The Outsiders too many times, but I could definitely see myself as a greaser. Othertimes I see myself belonging to an entirely different century. I've always said I would have loved to live during the renaissance period, at the height of exploration into philosophy, poetry, literature, and art.

I'm a hopeless romantic, I know a lot of people say they are hopeless romantics, but truly I am hopeless. And i'm a romantic through and through, deep down to my core; I just can't help it. Hell, all you have to do is read through my blog to know that. If you ever want to know me, I mean truly know me, read in there. It will tell you more than I could ever say in this "About Me" box.

I'm a lover, not a fighter. (well i have been in a couple fights and they were usually over a girl). A poet and a dreamer. Sometimes I feel as if i'm the only human being on this world and everyone else is weird, or maybe i'm just the weird one. At any rate, i'm the nice guy, the sweet guy, i say what I mean and I mean what I say. I'm extremely shy and quiet, which I think leads most people to believe i'm unfriendly or uninteresting. I don't know why i'm so shy, I always have been and I can't change it. Once you get to know me I can be pretty talkative, I have many things to say, and vasts amounts of knowledge, useful and useless, but knowledge none-the-less.

I'm not good at expressing my feelings verbally most times, but give me a pen and a piece of paper and I can write things so eloquently sometimes. I'm the guy that brings a girl flowers, or calls them just because, and then i'm also the guy that likes to joke about dead bodies, zombies, and horror movies.

I'm weird like that, but it keeps things interesting.

I'm a mechanic by day, rockstar by night. Not really but someday. I write poetry alot and usually put what I write on my blog here. Some people are hesitant to share what they write, and considering how shy I am, maybe I should be too, but there's something freeing about writing and letting everyone see whats in my mind..


anyways, my aim is PoetsDeadSociety, i'm usually always on, and always bored

My Interests



poetry

I'd like to meet:



"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow Roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.."
