Noticing Newbies

Hello. I'm a casual writer, and write when the mood comes around, or when I'm asked/prompted to. My writing is a little peculiar, however. I prefer poetry, when I'm writing, as I never finish long projects such as novels, and short stories aren't really my style. My poetry, however, is a bit different. As someone with Asperger's Syndrome (if you're unfamiliar with you, you might as well go ahead and Google it), I never got many things about other people. I never understood their fascination with sports, with talking without purpose, and many other things. But the one I did think I had an understanding of was love. I "fell in love", got together, and then got dumped. At the time I was religious and naive. I had thought she was "the one", and that I had been groomed all my life to marry her. When she dumped me out of the blue, I was embarrassingly devastated. I got depressed, and soon after developed Tourette's Syndrome. Yet another brain malfunction to add to the list. When I was at my lowest, I contemplated suicide, but religion saved me, as I was scared of going to hell. Eventually I got treated and got better. However, even when I was better, I started randomly thinking about random things. It was an eye-opening experience. It is because of this time of inquisition of all things in my life that I was able to reject religion and love. Both were closely intertwined, so when I decided religion was false, I realized that love held no meaning either. Now, I write poetry from this viewpoint, exploring what relationships with others should be like without our current religion-influenced culture that romanticizes it. That or some other topic I happen to be thinking about. And from now on I choose to put them on display.
