Analysis of Paridolia ADHD my poetry superpower



#Paridolia #ADHD my #poetry superpower

ADHD is known as a neurodivergent disorder
It's something I've endured my whole life
It was thought I was just being awkward, not quite
Yet internally I was going through torture

I couldn't understand why I couldn't just comply
Or keep my mouth shut when It applied
Thirty years is a long time to battle your own mind
And I couldn't answer the question as to why

But now I can, it is just who I am, yes I have ADHD
But that prognosis doesn't solely defy me,
It's just a little part, that sometimes you might see
But it also gives me the ability to see what you don't see,

Granted it has its floors my mind is far from harmonious,
But occasionally I'll see with such clarity its pure utopia,
Like when I write poetry the creativity that comes over ya,
It's seeing the love in little things occasionally and I believe that's known as paridolia.
