Momma’s Love is Enough
A momas love sometimes is enough
Little precious boy he’s my joy
He learns Chinese from grand pa
Around two years old world turns around
He stops talking no vocabulary
Starts grabbing and screaming
Where’s my little Angel
Tell him no and he bangs his head on the wall
Fits of rage and violence
There goes another door damaged
And holes punched out throughout the house
Put him in water and he’s like a dolphin
He’s so good meet special Olympics
Cuts the water with no hesitation ...
Little precious boy he’s my joy

There goes another door damaged
And holes punched out throughout the house
Put him in water and he’s like a dolphin
He’s so good meet special Olympics
Cuts the water with no hesitation ...

Red and Green
Red and Green
Red and Green within me
Sleep on a purple dream
Green relaxes me and me
Red is demon within me
Float on a puff of green
When I’m Red better watch out
Try to sleep Purple with you
Colors on Spectrum
Who is our audience that pays for it
Im Red and Green within me
You die for my former self
Im Autism within us
Everyone is on the Spectrum
Red and Green within me
Sleep on a purple dream
Green relaxes me and me
Red is demon within me
Float on a puff of green
When I’m Red better watch out
Try to sleep Purple with you
Colors on Spectrum
Who is our audience that pays for it
Im Red and Green within me
You die for my former self
Im Autism within us
Everyone is on the Spectrum

Save Me
I dreamt that you were six years old again
Yet somehow, I knew it was a dream
Subconsciously I was aware of our current time and place
But it didn’t matter
I was going to enjoy this little journey
You took my hand
Led me to the living room with all the toys
I sat with you
I hugged you
Your little face lit
Your bright smile
You spoke to me
I was happy in all the details of your face
Your innocence
I miss you being that little
I miss you all being that small
I held back my tears
Time has...

A Day with No Words(Aidan)
A day with no words (Aidan)
Bright piece of sunshine
Lights up my life
Lonely family in the playground
Seems a little bit off
Grunts and stares
Comments and snickers
Go all around
Hand gestures and body language
Communicates what he wants
If he wants to speak
Hand him a tablet
I want French fries comes out
As people whisper and glare
Welcome to the world my family lives
From sunup to sundown
Not a word is spoken
But we’re talking
He looks like...

Caustic Authenticity
Can’t pretend to be autistic
I just am
This abnormality is caustic
Don’t you fret
It’s not contagious
Why tolerate
When you can isolate
It’s way better
Inclusion is just a
R I
T N
S G
of letters

In Exile
I know things got off on the wrong foot right from the start
At the time when I was young I just fell apart
Even after all the years of me trying to do what was right
Lately it just feels like your silence is out of spite
With every visit I loved our conversations and laughs
The quality time was more precious and unforgettable
And as you got older you became stronger and bolder
So I wrote you verses to make our relationship memorable
But something strange happened within the last few years
You’re so distant and quiet and won’t talk to...

Void Of Solitude
no solace
from these
thoughts
where obvious traps
have been
sprung
where oblivion
seems only
a fingertip away
feelings
drain
to nothing
less
aware
of rxistence
walking
over
shallow graves
striking
how dark
becomes darker
when
you fight
alone
from these
thoughts
where obvious traps
have been
sprung

seems only
a fingertip away

shallow graves

Last Night on Revolution Road
Last night she came home with tears in her eyes
The years she spent coaching him came to an end
The little boy she aided through many challenges
Is growing up and in the future hopes to be a friend
She does the work with kindness in her heart
Giving them the tools so they can succeed in life
These children learn and develop new social skills
So that later on they can have productive lives
For all the days of frustrations there were also triumphs
It was a step forward toward an objective and common goal
Behavioral therapy requires...

Autistic me
Lifes been an echo
Inside a bubble
Full of trouble
And it bursts
Misunderstood
From the cradle to the grave
First steps to the Hurst
And it hurts
Inside a bubble
Full of trouble
And it bursts
Misunderstood
From the cradle to the grave
First steps to the Hurst
And it hurts
