A passing lyric

Autism.

The world is so big,

loud, fast, and scary 

so don\'t be offended 

when someone is wary.

If your face is not one 

that has shown up before 

don\'t expect an answer 

when you ask for the score.

Don\'t throw out a question 

and expect a reply

just because you\'re outgoing

others may be shy.

You may be tough

and with lots you can cope 

but for others the day 

could be lacking in hope.

Every day tasks,

or at the very least, some 

are not always fun 

for someone on the spectrum.

so please withhold 

on your humour or sarcasm 

it may not register 

to someone with autism.
