Depression In Nature

Deserted, isolated, all alone,
The  flowers breezing in the air,
One step then two step,
Walk through the mix flowers
 Of poppies, daisies and roses too,
When will the flowers blossom again ?

 The sound of bees all around,
The clouds brighten and come alive,
 The smell of pollen and roses too,
When will flowers blossom again ?

In isolation and bewilderness,
The flowers blossom,
The petals brighten,
The stalks strengthen,
In isolation and bewilderness   
The flowers will truly blossom again.

To Be In Love

First time I laid eyes on you,
my heart fluttered and missed a beat,
for you are the most beautiful girl,
I've had the pleasure to meet.

The way you talk to me
and always listen,
To comfort and soothe me,
and keep me at ease.

You keep me safe,
When things get tough,
You keep my heart beating,
For you are the reason,
I am still alive.

I'M Sorry I'M Autistic

I’m sorry I’m autistic,
That I don’t fit your expectations,
I’m different I know,

But doesn’t mean I don’t belong.

I may rock,
I may cry,
I may try and try,
To be normal in a world full of expectations.

But I’m autistic,
So I’ll make my own normal,
I’m sorry I’m autistic,
That I don’t fit your expectations

I Remember

I remember being eight years old,

Crying over the most valuable person in my life being ripped away.



I Remember being eleven years old,

Screaming ' you' at your grave,

Filled with anger and despair,

Wanting to visit you in the devil's lair.



I remember being thirteen years old,

Suicidal thoughts consumed my mind,

I wanted to be with you,

Because life was not fair.



I remember being fifteen years old,

My first serious suicide attempt,

Wanting to visit you,

Even if it was in the devil's lair.



I remember being seventeen years old,

Being sectioned in hospital,

For your death left a hole in my heart,

For I remember.

Home

Four walls,
Plenty of room,
That's my home.

New memories to be made,
Safety and comfort,
People to love,
That's my home.
