Justice denied
for another mind of my kind.
It hurts so much to see
the abuse over time.
It's a burden we carry
against our will.
Our hurt is an expectation
we can never fulfill.
But overcoming our "shortcomings"
is what strengthens us.
Our obstacles
are our only path.
Our unique efforts,
the only way to success.
Effort is success.
And success is being free.
And freedom is just being
the kind we were born to be.
I'm struggling with seeing a younger Autistic person receive so much abuse and negativity from her family and her peers. She is constantly struck down and never built up. She is beautiful. She is determined. She is wise beyond her years. She is passionate. She is a warrior.
