The Autistic Side of Life

My brother and me
Forever to be
Autistic.

Grew up in the world
With no proof to show
Perfection.

It all starts at school
On a sunny day
It was when it all
Went led too astray.

The kids point and laugh
At my brother and me
The little boys are
Forever to be
Autistic.

Dropped out of school
At grade five
I went back home
And I cried.

Fast forward to eighteen
I went to high school
A fish out of water
With nothing to lose.

Here I am today
With my brother and me
Can you understand
With all our suffering?

Autistic~

This is based on our lives. We are really Autistic.
This is to all Autistic kids everywhere.
We think outside the box. That's what makes us cool.

I just entered this poem in a competition earlier. The prize is $1000. Wish me luck...
