Puzzle

You look at me with an intensity beyond measure
Yet try as you may, you can't describe what you see
In a maelstrom of inner thoughts and dialogues
It's so very hard to get one coherent sentence free

You obsess over facts and search for knowledge
Your focus on the mundane knows varying degrees
Missing the obvious but connecting subtle things
As if putting together a puzzle that no else can see

You look at the world feeling so much pleasure
Yet try as I may, I will never see just what you see
Somehow in this jumble of  mixed incoming signals
There's a strong connection between you and me

     Autism is a mystery to everyone, especially to those who have it. Every day is a new adventure filled with triumphs and challenges. It's all in how people treat those with Autism. Acceptance, respect and understanding are the key, and would make everything so much easier. 
     My fourteen year old son has Asperger's, and this is my loving dedication to him. One of a kind, loved beyond measure.
