You do not know how I feel

What autistic child feels but won't tell you

By Olga MoyseyenkoPublished 3 years ago • 1 min read

You say - let’s go to the light,

I see it as too bright.

You say - what a good sound,

For me it’s just too loud.

You say - what a nice smell,

I really do not feel well.

You want give a touch,

For me it may be too much.

When you like a new flavor

Please make me a favor:

Just introduce,

And let me to choose.
