In the tapestry of my mind, threads weave wild and free,Autism’s focus, ADHD’s dance, a dual symphony.Colors burst in vivid hues, thoughts race like a storm,Yet patterns form in quiet spaces, where my heart feels warm.A world too loud, a buzzing hum, can spark a sudden flight,My senses flare, a supernova, craving calm’s soft light.But oh, the joy in tiny details—facts that spark and gleam,A hyperfocus haven where I chase my wildest dream.I fidget, twirl, my body hums to rhythms none can see,A restless beat, a need to move, it’s simply part of me.Yet in my depths, I analyze, connect the stars above,A mind that maps the universe with wonder, care, and love.Some days I’m caught in looping thoughts, a maze I can’t escape,Others, I’m a comet, trailing fire, defying form and shape.AuDHD, my double helix, both a gift and weight to bear,A vibrant, tangled, brilliant self—unique beyond compare.Embrace the whirl, the quiet depths, the chaos and the calm,For in this blend of spark and soul, I find my truest psalm.No need to fit a narrow mold, I’m whole just as I am,AuDHD’s my melody, my ever-shining jam.
