Autism is just a word
It does not define who you are
It dont make you unintelligent
It is something about you that is unique
That should be embraced
It cant be corrected but can become easier over time
Your little gestures I understand
I know who you are
I see what you see
I have discovered what is beneath all the layers
That everyone is so afraid of
The many layers of autism
The communication barriers the learing disabilities
I shall as your mother love you and tenderly be here for you
Every step of the way
