I added part of this poem in the limerick comp, but his is the whole poem.

I HAVE A LITTLE PROBLEM

THAT NO ONE COMPREHENDS

IT GETS ME INTO TROUBLE

I OFTEN LOOSE MY FRIENDS


I AM LEFT BEWILDERED

AND WONDER WHAT IS WRONG

WHEN SUDDENLY I’M SCREAMED AT

AND FRIENDSHIPS COME UNDONE


A TINY THING TO OTHERS

WILL BECOME TOO BIG FOR ME

SOME THINGS BECOME OBSESSIONS

I AM NEVER TRULY FREE


I AM NOT AWARE OF COLDNESS

THOUGHTLESSNESS OR SUCH

I TRY HARD TO BE THE NORMAL

BUT SOMETIMES IT’S TOO MUCH


GOOD FRIENDS ACCEPT ME

TAKING GOOD WITH THE BAD

THEY NEVER LET ME DOWN

OR LEAVE ME FEELING SAD


GRACE LEE

(APERGER'S SUFFERER)
