The undiscovered human


People with special needs are treated like flies

We are told we must disguise, blend in to belong in this world

The disguising gets hard, when we must give up a piece of ourselves

To even feel compelled to live in the world

The Neurotypical being, shouldn't stop seeing the beauty there is in diversity

People with special needs need a little more patience than the average being

Patience is a thing the world lacks, so indeed people should practice more of that

If patience is practiced, than the world may open up to help those that need

People with special needs are treated like flies

The world shouldn't tell us to disguise, and hide away

We need help to be brave, to open up, and let the world see
