Have you ever wanted to be listened to? Actually have a voice in something but can't? Have you ever felt barred by doubts and fears so you just be quiet and watch from the sidelines as opportunities pass on by? I have and when my parents, siblings, and I found out that I was a high functioning autistic with Asperger's syndrome, I finally made my:
AN AUTISTIC'S CRY
Why did it take them this long to say?
Say that I was going to stay this way?
I always felt so insecure,
For that I was totally sure.
Did they not see that the more they navigated,
I was all the more agitated?
Not only am I fighting anxiety,
But for security
Routines are what I love the best,
Even when I leave the nest.
Trouble is felt when I don't meet your demand,
Although I said "I understand"
Please if you will only heed,
You will hear my quiet need.
Beware on standing near,
You won't like what you're about to hear.
Why do you want my fantasy?
It only capped my curiosity
I try not to hold a grudge
Hey! Anyone want some fudge?
I know I don't always ask
Have you tried to hide behind a mask?
Prentending as someone your not ment to be
Hoping that they wouldn't see
For me, I saw no difference,
It isn't that I'm a nuisance
Its just that I like technology
Not biology
You know, if I'm only given a chance
You can see how well I can dance
I don't need a bully
I get that daily
All I want is a friend
Someone to stick unil the end.
But what I wanted
You had haunted
If your willing to take the risk,
I'll drop the stick
Why is your world spinning like a whisk?
That is totally making me sick
So are you willing to be my friend?
Stick with me until the end?
If you are then you're my pal
To let you know, I'm an Aspiegal
