Autism

 

I'm trapped inside my body shell

My confusion is a living hell

I look around and all I see

Is life just happening without me

I can just cope if things don't change

But if they do, it feels so strange

I face each day with fear and dread

Oh how I wish that I were dead

But now and then out of the blue

Someone makes my world brand new

A kindly voice, a warm embrace
Someone not too in my face

They fill my world with a little hope

And then I feel that I can cope
