You and Us - by Chen Gershuni

(written 2008)

Where your world ends
Ours begins
Where you can no longer feel
Our feelings are only starting to emerge
What you perceive as normal
We perceive as unreachable
What you perceive as unreachable
We perceive as normal
What you love
We can not love
And what you can not love
We love dearly
You and us
Neurotypicals and autistics
Two worlds that exist on this Earth
Yet light years separate between us
