It is my blessing and my curse.
A super power and a disability.
I hyper focus and struggle to focus.
I am highly intelligent and slow to process.
An explosion of creativity that can’t focus on reality.
I get up early but always arrive late.
I remember useless facts but forget to pay my bills.
I start a million projects and struggle to finish one.
I am driven, yet I procrastinate.
I agonize over decisions then I choose impulsively.
I organize then I can’t find anything.
I care too much; my emotions overwhelm me.
I am fearless, yet I worry about everything.
I want to be social, yet people terrify me.
I have too much to say, so I suppress my voice.
I impress and then I disappoint.
I am amazing and I am all wrong.
I love my brain then I wish it were “normal.”
I want to shine bright and I want to hide.
