Through the Years

I remember the days

filled with laughter and joy,

and a childhood so great.

I wish life was still the same.


In high school, I was the victim,

the one who others hated.

Bullied and made fun of,

I couldn’t wait to graduate.


From there I found a job,

to which I devoted my life.

I worked and worked some more,

but no one saw my value.


Today I am finally retiring.

I am so happy to get to rest.

This is my life so far,

not much more until the end.
