What a wasted life
over thirty years.
Being told I\'m weak
and reduced to tears.

What a waste of time,
and that time was mine!
I could have founded a cause
should have faced all those fears.

What is left here now?
It\'s my children\'s turn.
I dont get to take SATs,
This is not my \"well done\"

We got herded around
\"Work it out like the rest!
Try to soak up the facts
and spew them in the test.\"

They have names for it now
in the DSM-V...
Spend your childhood in hell
then find out you\'re alive.

There is still some time yet,
A career to be had,
Some children to fight for,
and for this I am glad.
