Inside
discomfort
a pain
suffering
inside body

Tension
shaking
anxiety
inside body

They claim control of muscle
of ability to move
But something else takes over
and orders a disconnected self

This other self
or this same self
orders
a step, just a step, just the next step
a breath, just a breath, keep taking the next breath

How can this be
both these parts inside
The parts that feel overwhelmed
the parts that can order to go on

Orders to a disconnected self
orders to a many parted self
