Say "Hi" in this Thread

Hello =] umm i wrote my first poem outside of school a few years ago, it was for a contest not many were entering and had decent prizes, so i threw a shot at it.

i have autism, and one of the benefits is in how we think differently than others... like more abstract etc. i saw things oddly as a child, (ok well still do but i learned how to be more normal) and i took one of those things and turned it into a poem, it did well i was proud of it =]

then years later i met someone into poems he saw it encouraged me to write another, and was even more proud of that one, and it was cathartic writing it too. and he helped me improve it.

i want to share it, and write more, and seek help writing more of them... trying to be a poet i'm a huge newbie but i really like what i have so far =] maybe others will like it to? hopefully.
