I gave you flowers once
When you were sick and the world thought you might die
You never died but your memory went
Leaving no remembrance of what ever happened
I wasn’t sick
So my memory stayed
And I remember
Tag illness
Migraine
An elastic is wrapped
Around my head tightening
And squeezing itself so that the
Pain is inescapable leaving
Me nowhere to escape and
Nowhere to hide
Thank you for previous comments
That have been left unreplied
Will reply when I am well again
