by katie-biesiada

The pain The anguish Every sound magnified The whirring fan The metallic cling and clang Everything hurts Every ray of light intensified Burning holes into my mind The bright It's too bright The head splitting pain Is far too much to bear A water bottle releasing air Soothes the mouth But pains the mind The pill bottle fumbles Through shaking hands And rattles echoes through the skull If sleep could only come It's far too early to be awake But minds like this are not so kind To let rest fall upon the body For even if the pain subdued The dreams to follow would be twisted Pain is the only thing to feel Coursing through every fiber Boy, how I hate migraines.
