A lot of the posts I’ve been making recently have been poems, or parts of poems, by Chad Sugg. I recently read his first poetry book called “Monsters Under Your Head”. It was really good, and I loved it so much I had to share some of it with you. However I’d also suggest that you go out and purchase yourself a copy, which you can do by going here:...

You Have No Idea How Excited I Am
