Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is
a thing people had coming back from war
But they used to call it \"shell shock\"--
not the kind of thing a child should endure.
I\'m jumpy as hell and quick to frighten
Memories come at me in my dreams
Disoriented upon waking-this I\'m
not faking-I\'ve had a nightmare it seems
It\'s hard to measure whose is worse,
yours or mine, so hard to tell
I cry at others pain especially if
they\'ve been through battle, that\'s hard as hell
I\'ll take my memories anyday
before I can watch a grown man cry
PTSD is a lifelong sentence
which is why the suicide rate is so high
