I read your journal
Reading your words, your poems, your feelings, it makes me hurt more than any physical beatings, it was a glimpse in your mind, all your madness, I read about your love, heartbreak and sadness, I see a glimpse of your broken past, all the pain and aching you didn't broadcast. I understand now, why you are the way you are, why...

The Autistic Journal
Autism is always a hard pill to swallow, Like planting a bullet on the skull Drifted from life's wonders As if I've slipped away. Stigmatized like a cockroach And knocked back from footy.

"Although I'm familiar with the art of poetry, no one has inspired my muse to inscribe my own journal. - so I placed my soul in her hands." Silent One I used to be a journal, daily dips of ink dripped deep into my dilapidated soul.

WONDERING HEART
My heart is like an open book That only she can write in it A journal difficult to open More like a lock with no key Yet she opened it easily My heart never gathered courage To tell her how I feel inside Yet I have been in love with her Before she knew me My heart is like a dungeon Holding my feelings hostage Waiting...

Journal Entry
In a nearby village, a man unfurled his manifesto of machinations. Shotgun blasts echoed the summit until he turned, cheeks flashing in the biting cold. A bouquet of flower petals, explosive roses frozen in time, sculpture at the snap of one’s fingers....

Journal Entry Day 130
Will I get anywhere in life? How can I find myself a job? Will I ever be noticed for anything good? Why don't I want to do what I love? Why can't I think more clearly? How can I be happy with myself? How do I find purpose? How do I find freedom in a world with so many rules? How can I...
