Empty heart full of pain,
Tired of my migraine brain.
Boom,
Boom,
Boom,
It goes,
Even wakes me from a doze.
Fight back pity,
Fight back tears,
This is my life,
Year after year.
Just so TIRED…(sigh)

Anytime 🙂
Sorry Dear, focus on the good days.
Thanks. Good advice :). Sometimes I have to pour out my heart. I find it therapeutic. Today will hopefully be a better day.
I understand, I do that too a lot. Hugs
Releases the stress :). Thanks for the hugs and sending them back at ya 😉
Today was a much better day. My pain was tolerable and I wasn’t depressed. I got out of the house for about 3 hours, did some volunteer work and then spent time with friends.
Hoping tomorrow is just as good. 🙂
Lovely to hear that. Mine was quite the opposite. Hugs
So sorry to hear that. I hope today was better for you. xxxooo

We all feel this way when we struggle with a chronic illness. It’s hard if not impossible to feel disheartened not be disheartened. But how self pitying can you be if you’re turning your feelings into something creative, like poetry? Poetry is action, the opposite of inertia/self pity. I hope the last 4 days have been a small reprieve for you.
All the best,
