Her World

This is a moment I shared with my daughter around the age of 6 it was 2 years after her diagnosis of autism. This moment turned my life and way of thinking around. I wasn't lost to her any more .

More than a piece to a puzzle
More than an open door or window
More then anything I wanted to be seen

I needed her to know I was there with her
Every step of the way fighting along side her
I spent hours watching you sweet girl
trying to figure out what it is you see, think, feel

Then one day you lay on the floor
Just kicking away at the wall
Like lightning it hit me
I knew I had to at least try

I laid on the floor next to my baby girl
I kicked the wall a couple of times
Nothing happened so I continued
Kicking the wall right along side you

I looked over to see you looking at me
Looking straight at me
Smiling and giggling at me
Oh how my heart sang

On that day My little girl 
Who they said was trapped in her own mind
She saw me laying right next to her
I knew I was now a part of her world
