Autistic and Mixed
In a world that is loud and bright,
one can struggle to make sense of sight.
Despite my mind being wired different,
It does not make me any less brilliant.
I am Autistic and Mixed, a distinctive blend,
An enigma that is difficult for some to comprehend.
While I view the world in a different light,
That is an aspect that makes me shine bright.
I may struggle with social signs,
But in my mind, that is fine.
When I concentrate on my passions,
I can achieve incredible milestones in any fashion.
Being Autistic and Mixed is a part of me,
A stunning tapestry that is tough to see,
But if you take time to understand
You will see a person with a heart so grand.
Do not stereotype me based on sight,
Take five minutes to learn about my life,
In the end, you will find a person who is civil and true,
Somebody who is just like you.
I hope that after reading about my life battles,
You see me as a human, not someone fragile.
Those racists, sexists, and ableists in disguise,
I implore you not to use your position to proselytize.
