Where to start . . . Let's see. I am 22 years old and I live in the California Bay Area. I am in my 3rd year of college although it seems like so much longer. I am majoring in business with a minor in music. Music is one of my greatest passions and I aspire to open my own recording studio(Jazmine Studios)in the near future. Formerly the guitarist for Fates Organic, a metal/industrial band, I am currently working on some solo stuff in the genre of acid/folk. I write and play my own music and enjoy performing at local coffee bars. I am widely considered the failure of my family: I do not personally agree with this opinion though there is little I can do to change it. I have a handful of scattered friends that are better than they realize. I am a glutton for tragedy, especially my own, and have experience more than my own share of problems and tend to write about them.
Remember . . .
-Timing is everything
-Get high with a little help from your friends
-Music sets you free
"I think I'll love you with my last breath"
"Old enough to know better, young enough to pretend"
"The only thing I'll hold against me
Is a picture of you tonight."
*************************************
Song that's stuck in my head:
Butch Walker
"Sober"
Can you please remind me how you feel
This emptiness is real
And I can't bear the thought of it
Can you please remind me how to smile?
I lost track after awhile
Is happiness so hard to get
Is it me, or is this over
As I got sober I watched you fade away
Is it me, or is this ending
As I was pretending, I watched you fade away
I didn't know that time could move so slow
When you've got nowhere to go
The silence is so deafening
Wakin' up on the wrong side of your mind
How could I have been so blind?
To see I'm losing everything
Is it me, or is this over
As I got sober I watched you fade away
Is it me, or is this ending
As I was pretending I watched you fade away
Sooner or later we gotta stop this elevator
You go your way and I'll go mine
I'm sure that I'll be fine
Is it me, or is this over
As I got sober I watched you fade away
Is it me, or is this ending
As I was pretending I watched you fade away
Sober...
As I got sober

My Poetry
-
The embers glow
Smoke rising into the night -
Go inside and close the door
Don't want to see those faces no more -
Up on a stage for all to see
With your supporting actor, misery
