The Codex: Mind of an Adolescent

By Dekota L. Bostic

Who would never stop loving you, no matter the fortune and fame?
A love of nothing to lose and everything to gain.
A love that fuels each other’s fire for each other’s flame.
See, I loved this girl who was the star in my eye …

Adolescence is a time of change, discovery, and uncertainty. Dekota Bostic debuts his first collection of poetry infused with poignant reflections of a teenager on a distinctive journey to find his identity, resolve dilemmas, and realize love.

Bostic—who has experienced both dark and joyful moments in his young life—uses vivid details, energy, and passion in his poems to reveal his questions about the world, a variety of experiences, and lessons learned. As he leads others through his emotions and thoughts about everyday life, faith, loyalty, relationships, and society, Bostic provides a compelling glimpse into how teenagers view the world, answer their questions, and make connections.
