To help carers or people who just don't understand asperges or other mental health conditions
It is hard living with asperges Everything is black and white Nothing is illogical Day is day and night is night You can not read emotion You don't want to cause commotion All you want is love and understanding Not grief and people just demanding It's hard to show compassion It's the mind too a fashion It's not lack of empathy It's just that you cannot see It's not a tantrum that's occurring It's the mind that is over tuning No point in saying get over it It won't help just make us want to fit We know what is right from wrong To a point of an OCD It's pretty much autism in form But not knowing what is the norm As a carer of someone with this fate Show understanding and not hate It's hard to know what to say It all depends on that day No negative vibe or attitude This will make them clam up Plenty of love and gratitude They be at the top of the cup So stop and think and wonder why What has made them start to cry Thier is a reason in thier head Try and resolve this before bed Now this isn't in every case Before you screw up your face This is just sufferers that I do know I just want to help and show

Your poem explains it well. My friend has 5 children,3 with Asperges, each a different form Home schooled all. Eldest two, 19,18, now in college and top of science class. Both won an award. So great potential.

Hello Gordon, that condition must be hard to live with,I feel badly for people that suffer with it. People should be understanding with a person like that. Just to accept them for the way they are. That is what I do with people with diferent handicaps. Have a nice day my friend.
