NEW CHAPBOOK AVAILABLE!
"The Positivist and Other Poems"
I've just recently compiled an anthology of what I think to be my best work over the past four years. I've included 49 poems with subjects ranging from heartbreak, loss and romance to transgressive, dark, cyberpunk, post-apocalyptic and tragedy writings. I feel that this is the culmination of my entire life as a teen, and I think many of you can relate to what I have written. There are moments of struggle, moments of joy, and hopefully even some moments of laughter.

On the East Coast.

I'm a writer.
That will never change.
I carve my heart out and dismantle it on paper for the world to read.
There is a lot going on in my head.
I'm not attractive -- per se.
I don't try to be.
I don't try to stand out. If you haven't noticed me, you probably never will.

Do I ever.
Poetry.
Buy my book. You won't regret it.
I'm an artist.
Worksheets and notebooks are decorated with my filth.

Her name is Shelby.
And no, I don't really like people that try to flirt with either of us.
Don't try to ruin +2 years of perfection.
God?
Don't get me started.
I'm a little conceited.
But I'm as selfless as can be. I'm generous. I'll help you. Talk :]
Classic video games?
Anyone who can strike up a conversation about Super Nintendo with me is a champion in my book.
XBox 360 -- Not so much.
It's okay. I'm a Nintendo kid.
Anime?
This should explain it.
I'll be 18 next summer.
Live it up while you can.
Hit me up.

The way I see things, if you aren't creating, you're destroying. Live to enlighten. Make something new everyday, even if it's just a line on a scrap of paper.
Sunny weather? ♥
This lovely boy was HACKED by Shelby: 10/11/08.
Oh boy, oh boy. Hacking my boyfriend once again. What to say. Well, since the last hack in January, we have indeed passed our one year mark. :] One year and two months, actually. This boy is amazing. This boy is cute, funny, sweet, incredible, clever, and stupid all at once. This boy is mine. I've never felt this way about anyone, and I don't plan on it. He's really just, great, to say the least. He's definately way smarter than he gives himself credit for, and I know no matter what the task is, he can do anything he sets his mind to. He's really super sweet, and I could never get enough of him. I do not give a flying shit about his shortness. To me; height is not a factor when looking for who I want to spend my life with. And that is him. I'm going to marry him someday. :] No doubts here. Brad, you are the love of my life, you little goose-headed-nerd. I'm keeping you forever. And I promise to love you for the rest of my life.
We'll give love a whole other meaning;
and we'll take the world by storm.
Meet Shelby.
With Every Forever, Comes an Ever After.
This is where it all began.
It's been two years since she made my wish come true. She's fulfilled it in every way imaginable, and exceeded my highest expectations. Never have I asked for this much perfection in any friendship or relationship in my life. Shelby Elizabeth Carroll is the one person who has stayed by my side through everything from 2007 onwards. She is my conscience, my confidant, my counselor, my girlfriend, my lover, my best friend, my life. I know what three weeks without her feels like-- I hope it doesn't happen again. She is funny and cute and intelligent and sweet. She can make my head spin and my heart jump. Since our beginning we've grown as much as the world around us. We've been through laughs, tears, fights, hugs and kisses and perfect nights. We've kissed in the rain and laid under stars. We've partied, relaxed, stirred up trouble and stayed at home. And even though we've done it all, we're only just beginning. We were made for each other, and I will never give her up. I want to cherish her and hold her and keep her. She's my escape and my paradise, I'm home when I'm with her. And I'll always be with her, for sure. <3
I love you more than life itself.
Two Years till Forever
"We Are Like Fireflies (Dead By Sunrise)"
By Bradly Brackenbury
We used to be like marigolds
Who glimmered in the sun
And we were vibrant, rich with morning light
So innocent and young
...And we danced without discretion
Because we lived so we could love.
We turned into a pair of roses
Trapped in a bouquet
And we traveled through the hands
Of lovers happier than we
...And we wilted in the winter
Only lived so we could breathe.
Now we are like fireflies
Who wither in the day
Whose wings grow weak with burden
Left bereft of things to say
...And we dance in our depression
Because we live to fade away.
We are like fireflies
Dead by sunrise.
Go here. Her photos are the most amazing thing you'll ever witness.
There are many ugly things in this world.
But there's always a perfect blue sky to look up to. ♥
