I am different from you

I function differently from you

I react differently from you

I respond differently from you...

You see me differently from you

Because you function differently from me

Because you react differently from me

Because you respond differently from me...

Have you ever thought that maybe I see you differently from me?

Maybe for me it's odd the way you react

The way you function

The way you respond...

Can you forget about who I am?

Maybe for a second, a minute, an hour?

Are you capable?

You think I can't feel

I can't cry

I can't laugh

But...

I feel

I cry

I laugh

Why don't YOU understand?

Can you forget about the label and see me for who I really am?

I took a children's psychology class and my main focus was on mental disabilities; Austism, Down Syndrome, Asperger's Syndrome (which branches from Autism) and much more.
