I twirl my hair to keep from idle hands
I twist paper to keep from idle hands

I clack pens on tables to drown out the noise
I pop my lips to drown out the noise

I tap my feet to keep from running
I wrap my legs around chair posts to keep from running

I scream to keep it from building
I punch my pillow to keep it from building

I take medication to try to feel normal
I pray one day I will feel normal
