Shaun’s Grandad on Autism

By The Welshman Aug 23, 2017

Shaun’s Grandad on Autism

What’s wrong with me?
Is a cry from the heart
By a little boy caught
In a medical mystery

The stares, the scowls, the smiles
Are cruelly blinded to me
For the windows to peoples souls
Are cruelly blinded to me

What’s tearing my mind apart?
What’s doing this? my plea!
Torment and anguish, forever fraught
In God’s name please help me.
