My beloved fellow migraine
sufferers, just to let you all know that You Are Not Alone, with a
poem I wrote.
A War We Will Win!
Like an army of slash hammers
Pounding on our skulls
Shattering them into a million pieces
And trying to conquer us all
Ravaging at us with such load
How long more will it attack?
Our brains might just explode
Will it stop when our heads crack?
We all know what it's about
As we lay in bed and grunt
To have our heads turn inside-out
And outside-in and back to front
Struck with such torment and strife
Confiscated of our energy and joy
No tolerance for light or any noise
An enemy that has come to destroy
Why does it come at all we ask
It is indeed not needed anytime
Gosh, it makes our life such a task
Whatever we committed that was such a crime?
The feelings that follow the initial sting
Causing us emotions of sadness and frustration
A pain so intense and so throbbing
We do not deserve this unreasonable punishment!
Begging for relief while feeling insecure
At the most inopportune moment its unleashed
Each new phase we shall learn to endure
We are not obliged to suffer this disease
Vow not to succumb to this curse
And to defeat the frightful migraine
Or our lives might get even worse
If we ever let it win the game!
Searching for relief in our plight
Bearing the pain of our constant chagrin
We shant give up without a fight
For it is a war we will win!

Honestly, I actually developed a
headache writing this poem! Haha!
