In a world that spins around,
I often feel like I'm bound
To rules and patterns that I can't break
A world that's hard for me to take
I see the world in a different light
Details and nuances in my sight
The noise and crowds overwhelm
Making it hard for me to subsist
My brain's a library, vast and wide
information flowing, never to subside
I struggle to filter and prioritize
As thoughts and feelings collide
Social interactions are a challenge
Small talk and gestures hard to manage
I may seem rude or indifferent
But I'm just trying to make sense
I crave routine and structure
predictability is my anchor
Changes and surprises. hard to endure
And may cause my mind to falter
But amidst the struggles and the strife
I see the world in a different life
With unique strengths and abilities
A different kind of sensibility
So lets embrace our differences
And see them as our strengths and defenses
For in this diverse and complex world
We all have a story to be told

- Comment from author about the poem: This poem was very emotional for me to write because this has been struggles I have faced every single day of my life and still today. I'm trying to come to terms that its okay to be different, and I want others to feel its okay too.

I laud your bravery!

in that all knowing and forgiving

gust of wind, decorations..
