The Revision

The way it slowly unfolded
began to shatter a broke focus
nightmares of screaming hospital rooms
confused by the diagnosis
pain and dark suffering
not many men can understand
"Your daughters autism is severe" had me
imprisoned in hate wastelands
no comprehension or answers offered
even after years of research
I turned to god with no relief
and got fake smiles at church
even now my anger hungers
in need of feeding my wrath
my faith is lost for the last time
my life is only an aftermath
subconsciously repeating one word
the question with no reply
insanity's slowly approaching
I cant stop thinking "why?"
something so right and so pure
had the light fade from her eyes
why must this happen to her...
i cant look away, my helpless ears hear her cries.

I was dazed but not lost
and neither is she
we get through it together
i mourned what she should be...
nowadays I put it together
to make a better world for her
and into finding some answers
so that no child should have to suffer...
i want to say my story was positive
but to keep it real, it really wasn't
the sad fact of the matter is that
my story's becoming a dime a dozen...

look it up. Autism is an epidemic. Whether
its the right thing or the wrong thing
the worst thing is to do nothing.
