4 months

… of being severely disabled by chronic migraine.

After 4 months I just feel like screaming.
I’m done with this illness,
I’m done with the stillness.
I just want to be healthy,
I just want to be doing
the things with my life
that I think are worth doing.
After 4 months I just feel like screaming
Screaming that why
are my efforts not working?
I try and try
to make myself better
and I cry and I cry
when things don’t get better.
After 4 months I just feel like screaming
Why?
Why?
Why can’t I be healthy?
