What no one knows

You see me as you pass yet you look past me. I understand I'm not normal, but the least a person could do is ask about it just don't expect me to answer.

My mind works differently than yours does, I know my disorder, but my disorder doesn't know me. The same could be said for others like me. But what you don't know is that I know how you see me. You show it through your words, even if your actions try to lie to me.

"A freak of nature." Is what a cruel person would call me. If they knew what went on in my mind.

"She's a crybaby, a weakling." Is what one would say if I showed my feelings. They don't know that I feel those words too.

"They're feelings jump from place to place." But they don't, I'm not seriously depressed nor am I not in control of what I feel. I'm just energetic one minute and quiet the next, but only because of the whispers I hear about me telling me to stay silent.

"You don't pay attention." My parents would say, yet I pay attention to what matters to my life, I mind my own business, so others have said before. Only I can't pay attention without something else distracting me.

It's hard for me to live with my disorder. My thoughts are never straight when I want to talk about my feelings because I've suppressed them for so long.

Yet what no one knows is that my disorder is a part of me.

I have ADHD and my disorder makes me, ME.
