Just some autistic guy who writes.
Nothing more.
Pinned
Poetry is my light.

It keeps me going.

I couldn't live without a pen and paper.

A word and phrase to mix together.

Painting pictures with letters.

Smiling after every sentence.

Poetry is all I have.

Without it I'd be lost.
I just want to love.
Something that I've never done.
My world, just me, alone.

I'm 19. In my years of being on this earth, I have never kissed a "boyfriend", never even close. Always three steps away, four if you count not curling into a ball every time i get the least bit upset.

I am sad, I am touch starved, I am upset.

I only want love.

Just a kiss on my cheek.

I cry in private.
A confession I rather deny.
A pleasure I hide from even myself.
I cry in private.

Hidden from prying eyes.
No view of the outside.
Without any judgment.
My tears, only me, only mine.

Barely a drop of tear.
Rarely a streak of snob.
I cry in private.
I weep.
I sob.

My only flaw.

My being both wanting and needing
The only one thing in need of receiving
Attention from another by perceiving
Me in my entirety, living and breathing

The need for their love
The crave of their attention
The plead for their friendship
A habit I don't mention

My only flaw.

Listen with your eyes.

Gaze at the morning light.

Feel the gentle breeze draft as it drifts through the blinds.

The soothing call of a new dawn.

A welcoming hand of a new day.

Listen with your eyes.

I only want love
A whisper of light
My thousands of pains
Said a lonely life

They hear me crying
It doesn't stop
A sweet boy dreaming
My dream, lost

20 more days til I'm older.

20 more days through October.

Every year it's the same.

Parent's wondering what I want.

Nagging me about things to plan.

Why can't a birthday be just one man?

Alone, for the night.

Accompanied by my thoughts.

I don't need anyone else.

I'm happy. Not lost.

I've been put on this earth.
Just to make you smile.

I move heaven and hell.
Just to make you smile.

I break down mountains.
Just to make you smile.

I do what I can do.
Just to see you smile.

A lonesome road.
The path of life.
Genuine uncertainty.
No end in sight.

A scared kid.
The horrors follow.
Unknown of his place.
Pain he can't swallow.

A rudimentary thought.
The simplest one.
What will I leave?
When my path is done.

Be outgoing.
You'll find that special place.
A happy spot.
Which brings a smile to your face.
A welcome glow.
A loving embrace.
A gentle smile.
A heartwarming space.

Be mad. Be an outcast.
Have the world laugh at you.
Let them laugh. Let them chuckle.
Let their laughs fuel you.
Live your life to the fullest. Smile.
Do more than smile.
Be happy. Be unique.

Just someone.

Someone to love me.
Someone to just behold.
Someone who makes me smile.
Someone with whom I'll grow old.

That someone isn't here today.
Soon, but never enough.
The one chance I get with you.
I promise to never give up.

Someone.
