a feeling,
nervous
a sensation,
restless

then two years ago
my leg started
I couldn't even see
it stopped before I looked

it got a little stronger
one day I saw it
move on its own
more insistent

I stopped it by looking
like intimidation
but it was just gaining
determination

one doctor, two
it was on a roll
It took concentration
to gain control

diagnosis after
exams and  test
just a description
tre mor per sis tent

then my arm and hand
drugs prescribed
one, two three, more
to no solution I embibed

if I'm busy there's no room
for it to succeed
it just takes advantage
when my brain is freed

sleep is the worst
or just trying to read
it has taken the ability
to relax and be me

and then there's attention
people can't help to see
I don't, I can't hide it
cause it is not me
