Focus

By Zoe Moga, TIWP Student

Crazy you might say
When you see me
The way I react when the water drips
Or when you talk to your friends over the teacher
Only you will understand when your ears buzz everyday
When your head hurts from all the noises
When you tap your fingers seven times to distract you from the chewing
Tap
Tap
Tap
Tap
Tap
Tap
Tap
Sorry I was wrong about crazy
Psycho is probably the proper word
In my classes it feel like people are in my ears
They have megaphones screaming in my eardrum
Constantly distracting me
Never once I get a break
So I tap my foot seven times
Tap
Tap
Tap
Tap
Tap
Tap
Tap
Seven times I twist my hair
Seven times I bite my lip
Seven times I breath in and out
Seven times I snap my fingers
Seven times I clench my fist
Seven times I close my eyes
Anything to focus
Tap
