Hands shaking
Head running in circles
Breathing off center
Mind frantic
Noises become unbearably loud
It comes at the worst times
Hanging with friends
Talking with family
About to go to sleep
Waking up
At school
At work
It's different for everyone
Lucky ones who don't even feel it
People who struggle with it,
Know what I'm talking about
Time feelings like it's swapping positions
One minute it's extremely slow
The next minute it seems like it just flys by
Like you can't even have a grasp on yourself
On your feelings
You're so impulsive
You're so confused
You question whether to tell anyone
You push people away
So they don't think you're a freak
