ABOUT ME

I am Cooper.

Where there's a beggaredness for attention, you'll find me.
Where there's an old pizza box, you'll find me.
Where sarcasm and acrimony intersect, you'll find me.
Where there's a collection of chapstick, you'll find me.
Where there's spilled milk and someone crying over it, you'll find me.

Where there's a soldier for what's right...
Where there's a will to experience the beauty of life...

You'll find me.

I am a dinosaur.
I am an evolver.
I am your best-kept secret.
I am your worst public mistake.

I will write your song... and I will sing it, too.

And where there's a soul too eager to sit down, you'll find me.
And where there's an aberration with a lesson , you'll find me.
And where there's someone running away, you'll find me.
And where there's a trembling hand that needs to be held, you'll find me.

Where there's sun illuminating a soul...
Where there's rain purifying truth...

When you see love unconditional...

You'll find me.

Some quick things. I'm a huge music enthusiest. The right lyrics and melody will resonate deeply with me, and I'd like to think that I think outside the box of pop culture as well.

I'm a proud Zune owner. Quit judging me.

I'm gay. Judge ahead. Rarely will you find me in a gay bar or tripping over my lisp.

I'm a C-student, but an A-human.
