Shattered Brain

in #poetry7 years ago

For anyone who has suffered this agony...


Torment



Surrendered restraint

No resistance

Nor complaint

Welcome faint

Deliverance

Press this spoon

Free my eye

Lift the weight

Loose the strain

Wax and wane

Deep inside

On the right

Scoop the brain

Ease my pain

Flee, migraine

This was a really 'soft' plea towards migraine, I liked it!

"scoop the brain" - why does this sound delicious??

As a poet... Of course you would hear that plea!!! Hehhehe

Yes!!! You're EXACTLY right! This was written on day 6 of a 6-day non-stop migraine. When this happens.... There is no anger.. no demand... Just pleeeeease. Please go away migraine. I give up. What do you need from me??? Take it. You need my eye? You require my brain??? As long as the pain stops- it's yours!!!

And yes... DELICIOUS deliverance maybe! Hahahahaha.

Thanks for reading!! 😍

Is scoop the brain about the spoon pressing on the eye to scoop it out? lol
I knew this was about migraine...I so knew :)

Even though we think we can control the pain, we can't. We have to surrender to it as fighting the pain causes more pain.

Yessssssssss.you know because YOU KNOW.

Only another migraine sufferer knows exactly how quickly they would give up the eye to alleviate the pain!!!! Ohhhhh please help!

And crying doesn't help. Nothing helps!!! Just surrender and pleading silently. Can't really think.. cuz even thinking hurts.

Yep. This was my situation... After 6 straight days of pain.

I think....if I can just get that eye out and scoop all the brain behind it... Then!!!! Maybe THEN thenoain would be gone!

Yes so would all my faculties!!! Lolol but the PAIN .... Gone!

I do not know the pains of a migraine, and I feel I'm very fortunate, I have bad allergies here and there, and that's enough!! No more gluten for you babe...no more!! We have to keep those migraines away!!

agreed!!!! i will do my best to fend them off!!!! to the death, gluten!!! ;)

WOW! I have a friend who suffers migrate. AT times, she would try to explain what she feels when her migrate hits. Your poem says it all! You have a fantastic way with words! Keep writing poems, my friend!!!

Thanks @silversaver888!!
I really appreciate that! I don't normally write poetry but @damianjayclay has been nudging us all to try!!!! So I did hehehehe

I just posted another one! I think I like that one even better :) it's a little bit sad... But it really happened the other day. I was listening to it.... And then thought I needed to write it down!

This is a super poem. Very brief and well written. @dreemsteem
