I want a simple and quiet life. I want ordinary things in life like a simple breakfast with my own family. I want a life where home is not just a place to live but instead it's a place where no heartaches, where no-one grieve over people or different things, where no one hurt or fear from anything. I want a house where we all heal and we raise a family that doesn't need to heal. A simple life where we all eat dinner together while laughing over simple things.

Witness.
I am death itself.

Aurora
Her voice is like the sweet taste of hot cocoa on a winter’s night.
It crackles and rasps, but it’s beautiful to me in ways I can’t fully know.
She glows like the sky overhead on just the right moonless flight.
Greens dancing around each other, giving the world a second glow.
Her hair is this delicate mess of curls,
But of course, she forgets to brush, despite her complaints.
Each morning I wake having dreamt of her touch, like a locked away pearl.
I desire things from her that betray the saints. 
There’s this cold, icy sea between me and her.
Mountains and valleys that seem too far to cross, yet I know I just must.
Each moment I can feel myself grow closer to her soft pur.
Every day I feel this feeling I cannot control, this lust.
I think about her, her awkward sorrys, and cute giggles, each day.
Every morning is waking to the disappointment that she's not there. 
I dream of a time when the ice melts and I can see her, perhaps come May.
I hope to unified fields of our universe, for an answer to my prayer
That which stands between us.
Time and money, such a vile beast. 
I know that time will go by, and money accrue, so I won’t fuss.
I know that such time will only see my love increase.

my heart is a
rotted peach
that sits in my chest.
too sweet
too soft
to be touched
without falling to pieces.

Another poem
I am working on a poetry book, that I'll hopefully be coming out with soon. Althouth I don't have the money to make a book no one will buy.

The scars may have healed
But I still remember how they stung
This battle may be over
But there’s always a war to be won
We may get to enjoy the moonshine
But what if we lost the sun?
This game is dangerous
It’s best if I run
But I can’t
Because you’re standing in my way
A treacherous path, a reckless journey
It’s hard to say
Which choice is the right one to make
They could both lead to heartbreak
But if I play it safe
I might live with regret
And yearn to go back and undo the mistake
That is leaving you
Because if I’m being honest
You burn too bright to just be ignored
I can’t keep my mind from drifting to you
When I’m busy and when I’m bored
You’re skipping around my imagination
With a teasing remark and a million-dollar smile
And I just have to accept
That I’m going to be here a while.
There are reasons to be afraid
But there are also reasons to be brave
I don’t want to give in to fear
A life controlled by caution
Is a life of shame
Because those who live that life
Are in the coward’s lane
That used to be me
But now I want to change
Underneath it all, I’m still terrified
There’s a voice in my head saying that if I run away now, it’ll all be fine
But I think hearts were made to be broken
And my spirit will most likely be lost
If never on any of my ventures
Do I have to pay a great cost.
(Siri may or may not have written this. wink wink)

The Pirate Hunter
The Beast Fighter
Both of them you knew
Yet you became the anti-hero
Times you spent alone
Writing became your only friend
Causes you dreamed of solving
Yet you became a cruel man
Your heart was made
By blood and gold
But where from whence you came
By blood and lost hope
You have suffered and betrayed
All that you were
For all that have died for your order
You have always left room to ponder
What might have been better
Was all but lost
Your heart, your soul
Your love, your son
You remain loyal to the end
For that you are thanked
You let your emotions take over
For that you are ridiculed
You wished for peace and unity
You were granted chaos and a broken dream
Now you see your family
Now you see your true love
You are written in history
But your legacy is tainted
A humble, broken child
A loyal, ruthless fighter
The Grand Master Templar
The one that could’ve had it all

I was never meant to fly like the rest of you
I was never meant to fly like the rest of you. I was never meant to see the world from a birds eye view, above the clouds with the sun glistening on my feathers. I was never meant to feel life like that, to feel the world like that. 
Instead, I was meant to spend my days crawling, sometimes stumbling over the endless miles on our earth, putting one foot in front of the other. 
But I don’t mind. They can’t see the beauty that I do. They can’t see the tiny blades of dewed grass in the morning, they can’t see the grains of sand on a beach rolling out with the waves. They can’t see the footprints on commonly traveled paths that connect people from all walks of life, they can’t see the ripple of water on the surface of a lake. 
They will never know what they’re missing.
—--------------------------------
In this poem, I described things high off the ground and in the air to represent neurotypical people’s way of thinking and the way the world was built to accommodate them. I described things close to the ground to represent the way neurodivergent people are often focused on one thing and how they can see the beauty in some things a lot easier than others can, and because the way they see things is different to the way neurotypical people do. Flying does not equal success, you can’t find diamonds if you’re not digging in the dirt.

What these eyes could feel?
its a long poem today.
When you are sad, you cry.
You cry, without discretion.
It irritates me, who never had a chance.
When you are mad, you yell.
You yell at others without sympathy.
It irritates me, who never had a chance.
When you are happy, you smile.
You sound so happy when you talk.
It irritates me who never learnt how.
So when you ask me.
“Why do you look at me with such eyes?”
I will say to you.
“Nothing.”
With these eyes you’ve seen before.
They are not friendly.
They are not happy.
They are not angry.
They are me.
I will always look at you with these eyes.
You are no use to me.
I won't smile at you.
I won’t get angry at you.
I will be me, not you.
Not you who can love.
Not you who can hope.
Not you who can look into these eyes and smile.
I envy you.
I hate you.
I love you.
I care about you.
Everything I see is you.
When you look at these eyes you don’t fear.
You don't hate.
You don't love.
You are you. 
I’d hate to say these words that go around in my head.
And spill from these eyes.
I’d hate to know the meaning of the one’s that spill from my fingertips.
If I did, some might need clarification.
Others might start to hate me.
Your mood shouldn't affect those around you.
Your voice wouldn't be the only thing in my head.
Your face wouldn't be the only thing in these eyes.
Your love shouldn't be the only thing I know in this heart.
They may call this obsession.
But I call it,
What these eyes could feel.

What I was.
What I was isn’t me now.
Broken, that is what I am now. 
A shattered thing, with no soul left.
Eyes drawn half shut as sleep demands I cede my mind to it.
Permanently.
But I refuse, too stubborn to die today.
.
.
.
Though, on second thought, perhaps I should close my eyes.
Never forced to anguish at the dawn’s call, upon a Monday.
Or to force myself up before the sun cared to do the same.
I’ve grown to hate the flowers and sunsets and the bittersweet taste of sugar. 
I think I used to like it.
That was part of me.
A child, one with little wit for the terrors of life ahead.
.
.
.
The longer I go now the harder it becomes to keep myself from that ledge. 
I nearly did it too, twice in the same night.
Yet I didn’t.
I sit here to relish in my own misery. 
These things I’ve tried, medicines, treatments, plans.
The damned fluoxetine, CTB, or weekly meetings.
None of it works, not anymore. 
They say it’s because I’m not trying.
I say that when I tried it only got worse.
They politely call me a liar, and we go on with our lives.
Me falling apart ever more, and they with my picked pocket.
.
.
.
I was a boy, once upon a time. 
A stupid little boy.
Who’d run around telling smarter people they were wrong.
I still get to tell people their wrong, though they lack the mind to understand why.
He thought there was no limit to what could be known or done or dreamed.
I still dream, though they feel like nightmares now. 
He got mad, he wrongly displayed, sure, but he hardly knew better.
I still get mad, I break things.
I miss those days.
What I wouldn’t give to go back there.
Childhood.
It’s right there, I can see it!
But it’s gone now, separated from me by the ever growing seas of time.
I regret not using my time to learn.
I regret not having learned to draw when I had a steady hand.
I regret refusing to learn to code because it was too difficult.
I regret not having fun.
I spent my time alone and bitter about it.
No, instead I spent it afraid of my inner self.
Cause I wasn’t free of self-loathing, was I.
I’ve always had it.
Creeping over me, seizing my body out from under me.
It was just a matter of time until it fell.
.
.
What was I?
I was growing up.
I might be different than most.
But I’m me, for better or worse I suppose.
And when I ask myself, would I do this all over again?
I can’t say I wouldn’t.

To fall in love
With the scars on your face.
To know comfort
With the smile on your lip.
Woe to the Summer Skies
The clouds caught in your eyes.
Bring back your rain
And I’ll bring the stars.
Oh, to fall in love
With the scars on your face.
