Tick

Where will it appear? 
In my mind it's always there. 
Infiltrating thoughts 
and creating more.

But physically, how will it show? 
A tick in the hands, shoulders, neck or face. 
Which subconscious choice 
will lead to today’s disgrace? 

As my heart races, 
my anxiety settles in. 
Making its home 
in a space too familiar. 

I wish I could wish it gone, 
to not be burdened by its grip,
wondering where it will appear,
