*to my niece with autism

Her intrigue melts in silence
as she gazes up at me
A big surprise
behind those eyes
that only she can see.
She leads me off to 'nowhere'
as she takes me by the hand
A quiet side
where she abides
But doesn't understand.

Oh let me in to ponder
and be there when she sighs
As I try to see
the great mystery
behind Trinity's eyes.
Her innocence shines through her
like an angel in disguise
There's love that knows no boundaries
Behind Trinity's eyes.

Affection may seem distant
but she's trying to show me how
She craves the warm attention
that I shower on her now.
In her own sense of wisdom
she can dream without the words
And try to share
with those who care
A world meant to be hers.

*love you Trin!
