The Dying Romantic is a collection of poetic longings that allude to the discovery of the soul and self in the physical and emotional world. As a result of fearing vulnerability, romantics often appear to be a dying race. Replaced with the man that would rather purchase the smile on your face, and keys to your heart, than pay attention, listen, and appreciate the blessing of getting to know you. This collection will help remind you how beautiful and spectacular you have always been, while igniting the fervent passion and understanding that you can be better, while helping others do the same! Immense love is invested in this creation fueled by the understanding that what you share with this world, is what it keeps of you. While reading the words within these pages, internalize the words of another that have served as my inspiration along the way: "Where you invest your love, you invest your life." - Marcus Mumford
