AUTISM
Autism is free, but it’s restricting.
It is a curse, but it is a gift.
It is challenging, but easy to solve.
It is painful, but we get used to it.
It is mental, but can cause physical pain.
It is disturbing, but it is capable.
It is emotionally demanding, but it can be dealt with.
It is annoying, but we get used to it-we have to.
It is bullying, but we learn to fight back.
It is different, but aren’t we all?
It is an illness, but it isn’t’ catching.
It is misunderstood, but there will be a cure.
It is rejecting, but we make up for it.
It is time consuming, but we make time for it.
It is confining, but we still get our message out.
It is a hindrance, but we fight back.
It is a muzzle, but we still try to communicate.
It is a hobble, but we still move.
It is a prison, but we still escape.
It is a manacle, but we still try to run.
It is a handcuff, but we still are co-ordinated.
It is forbidding, but we still stand up.
It is an enemy, but we still fight back.
It is like prison walls, but we still scale them.
It is dejecting, but we don’t go down without a fight.
It is unforgiving, but we are used to it.
It is hard, but it is life.
It is like a storm, but we try to calm it.
It is hopeless, but we will bring hope.
It is depressing, but we will not be depressed.
It is Autism.
It is Life.
