Tourettes Syndrome Poem

Minute after minute tics go by
Feeling uncontrolled spasms
Only one question why?

Swear words exit my mouth
I catch a breath and try to restrain
Will it ever go away
Or will i forever be in pain

Spitting just wont stop
Cant sleep at night
Tired in the morning
But get up with all my might

Gettin depressed
Don't want to keep going
Just want to give up
My patience is slowing

People keep staring

Please don't look

Just want to leave

It feels my life was took

So I see medication as a way to escape

But side effects start to get bad

Feeling Weird

Starting to get mad

I feel despair

Feel like hiding

Don't want to go on

My stress is multiplying

But I tell myself to keep going

Try not to mope

I have a future

Life will get better I hope
