Migraine

 

Claws dig into my brain

Scorching as the tear me

The wounds are festering

And the maggots crawl

Lacing in and out of me

Each time stinging more

Like jolts of electricity

That surge trough my core

 

The slightest sound hurts

The faintest light burns

My thoughts are fogged

The pain veils everything

Darkness and silence

Like two godly blessings

Stay away from the world

And its light filled pleasure

Until the claws release at last
