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.
