Hello Everyone, after feeling down because of the fighting with LA who don't believe in my wonderfull son, I wrote this and wanted to share!
The face of autism
I have autism
You can?t tell from my face
My behaviours, my worries
That?s what differentiates me
Why the judgmental look?
You don?t know my story
I don?t hastily judge you
So why you me?
I don?t respond to you,
Not because I don?t care
I simply can?t hear you
There?s too much noise to bear
To you they are whispers
For me they are screams
I will now ?shut down?
Drift away in reassuring dreams
I may look impatient,
You think I misbehave
That?s because words are absent
To tell about my torment
I have autism but this is not who I am
Lovable and quiet this is what I go by
I always try my hardest, it is not always easy
I can?t learn like you, it is harder for me
I want to do well
And cuddle to my Mum
With Dad I laugh and play
He is so much fun!
This is a bit of my story
But this is not the end
If you open your heart
It will help you understand
These are my parent?s words
They love me to no end
Give me a chance, you?ll see
Why they believe in me.
