Life Goes On

By Denise Garrett Tuesday, March 30, 2010

I want to go to the party, but my head is pounding everywhere,

I want to go see my friends, but the pain is more than I can bare.

 

I wanted to go to the park and play with the kids today,

yet another old flame came around to burn out my way.

 

I wish to go to the reunion and see everyone from different towns,

But, my day started off as usual and I can't even stand any sounds.

 

Life goes on, that's what they say,

Maybe we can do it another day.

 

My husband and kids were going to the game tonight,

Oh, but I couldn't wait, then "Bam", came the pain on my right!

 

You missed a good time, and we wished you were there,

But, do they really know, I prayed and suffered while waiting here?

 

It was my birthday and I couldn't go away,

Just another migraine coming on, so I couldn't have my way.

 

Life goes on, So they say,

Life will go on, and I'll be without pain someday.

 

Oh, but I missed out on so much fun, when oh when will this

disease be done?

 

When all I can do is lie down and cry,

who will pick me up when I feel I could die.

 

Life goes on, and so it will, I know

an Angel told me this, and will stay by my side.

That is exactly how I feel. Your poem captures migraines perfectly if you ask me.

Thank you. I just typed it off the top of my head. LOL. Didn't even mean that to be funny! I have always wrote poems. Not anymore, but, I figured, this was easy to tell about. I've lived with this so long.

I feel exactly the same! I am sorry you are going through this. I live with so much pain daily, I hate to think of other's feeling the same way I do. It kind of makes me feel like - if there are so many of us, why can't they figure out how to help us more?

Same here. I get very angry with people who don't understand. But, that's something I've been working on. I'm trying Botox and hope it helps. I've actually had a few good days. I was prayed over on Sunday, and have felt pretty good since then. It's actually amazing. Hope God keeps working on me. LOL, And.......I have to work on me too.

I hope you get better too.Smile
