in the soothing voice of silence,broken

By the heavens unmistakable opening, as I am soothed

By the rush of rain, the out pouring and the drip,drip,drip

And gurgle of water filled gutters,and I am, "migraine

Awake!" in the, "never land"of exhaustion. the vice like grip

That holds my head in constant reminder of pressure

has lowered to a four on the,"stricture scale."Nausea

Clings,screen blares in intolerable screams of light.

As a moth I am drawn,I Obey the command of,"awake!"

And I know the price of tomorrow! Yet from within my very

Elemental nature,

tonight I am not my own!

Migraine Awake!

Stillness holds me

in the soothing voice of silence,broken

By the heavens unmistakable opening, as I am soothed

By the rush of rain, the out pouring and the drip,drip,drip

And gurgle of water filled gutters,and I am, "migraine

Awake!" in the, "never land"of exhaustion. the vice like grip

That holds my head in constant reminder of pressure

has lowered to a four on the,"stricture scale."Nausea

Clings,screen blares in intolerable screams of light.

As a moth I am drawn,I Obey the command of,"awake!"

And I know the price of tomorrow! Yet from within my very

Elemental nature,

tonight I am not my own!
