Meeting Destiny
The other night
There was a total lack of light
Went to help get this young ladies car going
Never knowing
This moment would impact my mind
What did I find
This young lady came and sat in the car
In the darkness I saw her star
I asked why so sad
Why do you feel so bad
She asked how do I know
She was sure it did not show
I just do.
These words are true.
I am you
You are me
So easy to see
We sat there communicated
Her curiosity sladed
One autistic to another
Was not even known by her mother
I understandstood her pain
Life was such a strain
Emotions lost
Heart turns to frost
I told her why she felt this way
And the pain it brought each day
She read me her poems she wrote...so full of hope so much despair
Made me care
Such a beautiful mind
That is what I did find
In the darkness of night
I found a beacon of light
A hidden gem stashed out of sight
Not letting anyone else see
How beautiful her words be
So afraid of scorn
Her heart was torn
I showed her a way
For her words to forever stay
Where only kind words will anyone say
I helped her to understand her own mind
What a find
May never see her again
But I gave her a place to begin
I hope the world gets to see
The Beautiful words there be
Coming from her heart
Hope I gave her a good start.
Pointed her the right way
Her words will bring light to your day
