This buzzing sound drags on, driving me insane
Everyone talks relatively louder intensifying my pain
"Shut Up" is the phrase I want to yell
My head is pounding relentlessly, can't you tell?
I took two extra strength tylenols
Needless to say, they didn't help at all!
I want peace and quiet for one hour
but everything seems to get ten decibles louder
In my head, it's an echoing fire drill
I need some morphine, forget these useless pills
I wish to be at the library....Quiet
Instead I'm trapped in almost a zoo riot
Times like this I wanna wire shut people's jaws
Or pick up the remote and put life on pause!

Oh I am so sorry about your headache, but i have to say that last line really gave me a chuckle. Wish I could do that too. Use the remote and put life on pause..just till the headache went away.I hope it's gone. floria

LOL...i feel your pain. Sometimes I just want to shut everything and everyone out
but most of the time it doesn't work.
Your quiet time will come!

Poetry is spiritual ventilation!

I have suffered from migraines for years so believe me when I say, "I feel your pain!"
Try an icepack...
Good example of a monster headache.

Sometimes earplugs work or just a long walk by yourself.  The last line with the remote was the kicker.  Enjoyed.

(BIG HUGGGSSSSSS) Oh Joanna, I'm so sorry about your headache, I too have them every now and then, and I too wish I could just lay in bed and do nothing more but dream the pain away!

You have such a beautiful heart, my love, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

RosePetal,
I fought chronic migraines for two solid years. Three weeks to three months at a time. I suggest you do what I did. I gave them up! (I was worried this poem, based on its title, was for someone.)LOL

I know it's not funny when you're head is splitting.  
If only it was that easy to put life on pause!  

You've got the right idea anyway!
