I'm neither happy
or mad
neither grumpy
or sad
no trace of emotion
that I once had
you stare at me
I avoid your eyes
I scratch my thumb
as I hear your sighs
the excuses I give
why I seem cold
you believe not a word
that you're told
I won't give the reason
you might as well quit
I simply feel nothing
that's pretty much it

Aspergers
You tease him.

Mock him.
Lie to him.
And he takes it all.
He doesn't understand. Or maybe he does and doesn't let on. He always has been one to want attention.
No. That was wrong. Not attention. He wants friends. He wants people who don't make fun of how he dresses or the things he likes. He wants people who don't egg him on for a laugh or call him names and make fun of his (often less than socially acceptable) mannerisms.

A mental condition,
Is there something wrong
with you?
They ask curiously,

They couldn't have known,
So please try not to blame them

Your mind is wired differently,
The man in the nice suit said,
Taking my mother's money
In return for a "diagnosis"
I did not look into his eyes
Did not like the
Calculating look he gave me
I say "Aspie"
It's almost pretty

The faces say,

Being anti-social
If I had the choice
To act like the others
To feel natu

Asperger's
Asperger's, Autism, High-functioning Autism, or anything else
It isn't easy to deal with
Not a disease, you don't catch it

Ticks
Routine
Sensitivity
Poor communication
Strange habits?
Intense focus
Emotions
From my experience?
Feeling judged
Isolated
Introvert
Regretting what I did
Withdrawn from the world
Feeling alone
Sound familiar?
What a freak
Weirdo
Do something else for a change
She keeps to herself
Do you ever talk?
You should try to make friends

First of all. Wonderful poem. Second of all I LOVE the tag line AFTER the poem just as much. "Cause you can't pull a rainbow out of your ass everyday." Kinda sums up life in a snarky little nutshell. Well said.
