This poem can be read in three different ways.   Because autism is a disorder of perception, I intended this format to be symbolic of the disorder itself . . . 

The right side can be read by itself
The left side can be read by itself
The left and the right side can be read together.

Interpret "language lies" in the context of your choice.  : )
 

Autism

 

 

Inside,

               please look for

yourself,

               my actual ability, not language,

lies

              beneath the pictures I cannot show.

Beauty

               locked within my soul.
