Deeper Than The Eyes Can See Poem by Amanda Celino

Deeper Than The Eyes Can See



I learn a little slower than most
I stutter with a lot of my words I can't
always express what I feel So most the time
I let my feelings go untold

Kids at school love to tease
They think it's funny that
I have an incurable mental disease
They point an laugh Just cause I'm different

They don't know there's more to me
Then what the eyes Can see
But they don't care
They rather bully me

I have autism I live in my own little
world full of confusion
I have meltdowns
Just cause of unexpected changes
I have sleepless nights I want to fight
But I'm human and I have feeling
And a heart.

If closed minded people gave me a chance
They'd see the only difference between you and me is I see everything deeper than eyes can see

Deeper Than The Eyes Can See

a great poem, dear Amanda. Thanks for sharing. And welcome at PH! and about children bullying Zachary.. children behave quite bad, sometimes, but they do not know what they are doing.. About their actions, the words from Luke 23: 34-44 can be use in their deep truth..
