Bondage for all

Pain; yes, but that is where it starts, pain

I hear giving birth is pain

Gall stones are pain

To be shot stabbed that is pain

I wish I had only pain

I do not think there is a human word for it

No, you can only try to describe it

Unseen, unheard, undetectable from the out side

It isolates you, may take your sight and sound

No one can help, your all alone

You cannot run from it as you cannot run

So you try to fight while laying down

Take the meds your doctor gives and over the counter pills don’t be shy

It's still there inside your head

Caffeine, alcohol, still by my side

The war rages on, fight some more

Vomiting violently convulsed on the floor

Ice your brain; freeze your skull, so cold you can’t feel hell

You win you win relief is here, till then the cold it disappeared

The battles lost you give in, surrender, surrender but it does not give in

You pull at your hair to rip at its core

Scrap through the skull blood and tears your face a wreck filled with despair

You tried it all, there is nothing left, now you are desperate for it to end

The thing you feared the worst of all, violent to self just to end it all

So wall meets head then the floor, still can stand so once more

Harder, faster, again and again

White, weightless calm, you hit the floor

Does it end here?

Perhaps

Then again; it may be angered when you wake from your nap

Does it, or this; have a name you can call

Demon, monster, hell, yes to some

Migraine

they call it

Bondage for all!
