Autistic and Totally Working in the Pendant -- An Autistic Child Poem

Updated on September 23, 2012

"Dedicated to my son who was diagnosed with pervasive development disorder(PDD)..and slowly getting recovered, with his mom's dedication..."



The moment I arrived into this world

I was unusually different

would rock myself on the high chair and would

feel that breeze air

Wouldn't say a word

I just wanted some more

of that apple pie

that grandma made for this child of God


My mom kept me away

from danger and this outside world

wanted to say thank you, but

brain turned the page and took me away

Mind said no, even though I wanted to stay around


Grandma came with a pendant that

had my name and my condition

at times wanted to throw it away

but held back and stay in position


I see a world from this bubble that is around me

I want so much to say... 'I love you'

but once again

my brain would keep me shut

to mom who would see me through

a different state of mind


she is patient with me

but at times my behaviour lashes back

I want this and that

I run over here and over there

sometimes I think God doesn't care


mommy wanted to hug me one day

and I said no!

Mommy wanted to cry one night

and I said no!

she wanted to ride with me and I said no!


Only when she screamed

my mind started to listen

only when she embraced me

my life was a little different


What would be of me without her

what will happen if she didn't care

who would throw a ball like she did with me

who would catch my breath as she

and me bend on our knees


I need to break away and see what is in the pendant

that grandma gave me


I want to be able to say 'I love'... and really mean it!

when mom cannot take it anymore

I want to be able to take care of her

and ride again our palomino Mare


This omega and oil fish are doing wonders

sparkles and bits of emotions

are coming to my rescue

hope to join my mom..who is loving and so cute!

PDD who wants to be like you and me?


The pendant has the clue

the love in my heart will break through

God please! help me to be a new me

Lord have mercy to this child in..need!
