Some say Autism has no
Place in today's society
I have overcome that
But I still Am Bullied for it
What has become of Us
People with Autism
Bullied And Tormented
I am one of these people
Why, Oh My stars
I am being dicriminated
just for being this way
It just saddens me
For those in the sutistic
Spectrum, Beaten, Bruised
Reduced to tears
It's just sickening to bear
Why Me, Why Us?
It is sad already
But, learn to go
Through Equality
Equlity for all
Able, Autistic,
Wheelchair users,
Cerebral Palsy
We need our rights
We need our freedom
Why Deny us
And reduce us to tears?
We have our rights
We have our Pride
Don't take it from us
It just saddens me and you.

Outstanding write. It's very sad that anyone with a disability, or is overweight, too skinny, or what not get's bullied on. I'm one of those people because I'm overweight. I've been picked on for my whole life, but I just think that those people are just too immature and haven't been in our shoes. It's just so sad. On facebook; I've seen pictures of children and people who have disabilties, and some people call the picture fake. This poem made me cry so much, I can't stop. One of my favorite teachers, her son is autistic, and he's so very cute. This world needs to stop its cruelity, and start paying attention that life isn't just a game or a fantasy. I wish you well and luck. ~*Alicia*~
