You Do Not Understand Me
you do not understand me
and you never have
you have never made the effort
all very sad
you do not understand me
and you never have
despite saying that you do
never made the effort
always missed the clues
you do not understand me
i am not the autism
that you chose for me
i am not the poor personality
that you chose for me
i am not my parents
not the parent that you chose for me
i am not the stupidity
that you chose for me
you do not understand me
and you never have
i asked you to come indoors
buy you stayed outdoors looking sad
