Some people say I am weak.

I believe I am strong.

If you took a small peak,

You would see they are wrong.

 

I am very opinionated,

So they say.

But I see myself in a different way.

Losing a step-dad

And then a biological dad -three months later,

It is a hardship… but it changed me for the greater.

A hardworking student I will be,

To make my life better to all to see.

I am on the autism spectrum

But that never suppressed my determination.

I get put down so many times a day,

But in the end I know everything will be okay.
