to a lonesome child
my dear I hope
you find and know
someone will think
what makes you fall to the brink
and what makes you shrink
is brilliant and hot pink
atop your head they can see
your nature, it's beloved to
that chosen few
they will leave
but you will never cease
you don't have to please
anyone, just be
and they will come with ease
i would listen to you tell me
about the density of a black hole
and the fact of a supernova
of one-point-seven and the Pandorica
of a Rust-y Mid-Tower Unite
of a Paper hero and how to fold
a wheel to ride upon
of bats abound and
fans, the sound
of disconnected boards
i would tell you how
they hear it now
that glaring golden star
it has been there
in your hands and
you do not have to hide it
upon your face
atop your helm
within your mind
your words are loved
there's more to find
do not give up
your autistic sunshine
