A Poem Of Mine: Aspie

"ASPIE"

Unfair, unfathomable!

Solid reasoning thrown to the fire,

In favor of etiquette, the manners of the superior!

Surely truth is better than fake flattery, fabricated compliments-

Better words be straight than bent.

Call me hell-sent if you will,

My bluntness may be an odd divergence from the norm-

But I would rather tell the truth, be in the right-

Than tell the blind they have sight!

What is this organization of cordialities?

So natural to the sheep, the crowd.

Not to me, there obviousness, so bewildering.

Shall I try and fit in?

Force my heart and mind into an unnatural contortion?

I would if I could-

I sometimes ponder.

But it is an impossibility, an unattainability objective…

So I stay as I am-

In this crowd of socialites, those who are energized by other people, a self perpetual cycle!

I stay as I am-

An awkward, inelegant introvert-

The outspoken, odd one out…

But no matter if I stay quiet,

Or if I shout-

Some will stay perplexed at my differentness

This disposition I hold-

Some will always think me somewhat cold

And so they leave me, altogether overwhelmed…

Yes. Thank you.

I've wrote and published an ebook called "Aspie Poet". I don't know if this is the place to post but I'm going to anyway. http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00HZTB47W/r ... 4sb08EWCY1 …
