A Beautiful Curse

Do not be offended if I avoid your gaze,
I am often oblivious to those that surround me

Do not feel shunned if I ignore your words,
I often like to be alone where I can make sense of my world

Do not be hurt if I reject your affection,
I sometimes struggle to understand your emotion

Do not be confused by my 'normal' appearance.
I am unique and special in myself but I look like just like everybody else.
