About Me

my mind moves too fast for me to keep up and my heart has been through as many beatings as a pinata at a childs birthday party. a morning without sunglasses is like sleeping on the wrong side of the bed. tan is never tan enough. sarcastic is the new funny. a night at home is sometimes needed. a farm town boy with big city dreams. i want to reinvent romance, find the fountain of youth, find one that is worthy. don't chew ice around me and if you have a crying child you might want to walk the other way. other than that, do you wanna go to the pool? ps. you are listening to the soundtrack of my life...Â

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

it's a question I may spend my entire life trying to answer. SOmeone who has the ability to contain my inner thoughts, someone who knows what I am going to say before I say it. The same person will win me over with a wink of an eye or the flash of a smile, will anger and frustrate me, hold me so tight it hurts, and make me laugh until I can no longer breathe. Will balance my love and need to be with my friends, and will be loved and love my inner circle as much as I do. I don't believe in too good to be true, but I refuse to be settle and look forward to the challenge that I know it will be, the road is winding and there are no warning signs, but it is a road I am not afraid to go down.

A Game of Double Dutch

5 years later...

It still replays daily in my mind as if it were yesterday. But in all seriousness, I wish I could have the end of that night (Friday the 13th of September) permanently erased. I am not going to go int...

surviving the storm

Weight of the World

It takes hold of my entire body, wrapping its torturing hands around my lungs, preventing me to take a full breath and limiting my entire movement. It is beyond my capability to put into words, other...
