I Trip On Poetry, Its My Personal High
My name is Joaquin but my friends me Jae. I am born & raised in Queens, New York. I am 24 years young, a June Cancer; so I'm a baby born in the warm embrace of Helen's Summer, however I have a thing for Jane Frost's icey grip.
I'm a published Poet, Comic book creator, I'm sort of working on two movie scripts and I would like to get into writing plays. As you can see I love to write. Part-time student(pursing my AA in Criminal which was a bad idea because all I want to do with my life is write). I have lots of dreams and I'm chasing each and everyone of them.
I love ink on my skin(I have 9 so far), Levi Jeans, Vans sneakers. I love all kinds of music(Rock, Alternative & Punk are my genres). I have a real weakness for musicians but most of all female Poets(add an English accent and I drool, haha seriously I need a bib).

I don’t know what made me feel I was so special,
It’s laughable to think that I thought what we did on that,
Deceiving December night was anything more than sexual.
There was nothing extraordinary about what we did,
To her we were, Just two cold bodies pressed together,

I wonder what it would feel like to be loved.
Am I the only one excited by this? growing up; I watched “Boy Meets World” every week. I loved the show and when it reached it’s finale I was sad, lol. I’m just happy to see Cory and Topanga back on screen together.
I’m a dork.. I know !
Feenay ! Fe Fe Fe Feenay! lol
The best lies,
are told with open palms,
while being patted on the back,
who knew,
such friendly gestures,
could be so deceitful.
A falsity told with a smile,
is so often the most lethal.

I loved the sound of your voice,
until you said “Good-bye”

Oftentimes in this life,
you will buckle,
after loosing your feet in the everyday shuffle,
the hours spent awake in a day can be such a struggle.
but I want to make everything more bearable,
I want you to apprehend the fact,
that I am here for you,
standing right beside you,
as your…
