Repetition

Repetition

Outside, I’m normal Part of the world Like everyone else; Neurotypical. At home, I’m different, Alone, Neurotypical, In a world of Aspergers.

Just goes to show Who’s really different.

Just goes to show Who’s really alone

Somewhere in the world, We’re all different.

My religion says, Don’t harass the stranger, For you were the stranger in the land of Egypt.

Again, History repeats itself.
