What Migraine Feels Like #MightyPoets #MySymptoms

What Migraine feels like
Migraine invades and initiates take over. ‬
brings it's friends nausea & vomit
brings another friend blurred vision.
says loss of appetite no eating for you
no being social no sound to enter my ears
demands keep dark no light to hit me
decides I'll explode in your head causing intense pain
makes heart race really fast
decides to turn up temperature
decides to bring the cold
brings along the body sweats
demands medication can't keep down
brings many debilitating symptoms along for a ride
gets it's rhythm pulsating pain
a neurologic disease no cure
wants to spin get dizzy
attacks all over the body
fights Allodynia where everything hurts to the touch
demands Eye mask total darkness
calls on jaw and neck
gives invisible kick causing fainting
