Читать книгу Twitch and Shout, Hallelujah, Amen - Gregory John Nashif - Страница 12

It has been an interesting life, living with Tourette’s at times has been a strange adventure; sometimes like a merry-go-round, like a circle with no beginning and no end. Other times it is a roller coaster ride, or an unfinished jigsaw puzzle with its pieces scattered; and me trying with all my heart to pick them up one by one and make them fit into a clear picture.

I’ll live with these ticks all my life.

I cannot escape the hardship and strife

this twitch and shout bring to me every day.

Is there any peace coming my way?

I never get used to people’s stares,

The laughing, the mocking; nobody cares.

My body is tired and so torn apart

Tears fall from what is left of my heart.

Is there a hope I can find somewhere?

Is there a breath I can take to ease my despair?

If much weeping comes in the night without warning,

Will joy come my way in the light of the morning?
