Migraine Thief 
  
Every time I turn around 
There is something new I found 
This invisible disease has stolen 
Something else I hold as golden  
  
First it was the food I eat 
I have to watch the good and sweet 
This includes chocolate and tea 
As many things typically affect me  
  
Next anything with illumination 
Light has become an abomination 
No longer can I enjoy the rain  
It makes me sick and causes pain  
   
Another possession snatched that's key 
Large gaps are now in my memory 
I struggle to find the words to say  
If they're located, I can stutter away 
  
Playtime is not any fun  
Cause when I try a little run  
My head starts to thud and pound 
Also feels like I've twirled round and round  
  
Never to get back family time lost  
It's a burden I must learn to cross  
Work hours gone, missing income too  
All part of what's taken because of this goo   
  
Stolen are too many a friend  
Is any of this ever going to end  
When will this thief get locked away  
Some peace is needed during our short stay
