Involuntary Blink

I'll forever blink my eyes
in the darkness of my room,
as I sit here in silence
I face neurological doom.

An imbalanced chemical
in the front of my brain,
I am blinking constantly
and feeling so much pain.

This involuntary movement
that I really cannot stop,
I am afraid if it continues
my eyelids might pop.

I try hard to suppress it
by closing both my eyes,
holding it as tight as I can,
it comes as no surprise.

I have to let myself go
though it bothers me now,
like a really bad itch
I have to free it somehow.

My case of Tourette Syndrome,
is a blink of pure hope,
my eyes may keep fluttering
but I know that I can cope.
