small stone 7

Sonja Chan

February 7 - Migraine

A touch of total darkness,
the sound of drumbeats deep,
the hold of excruciating pain that
rends my head to diverse sections -
leaving me in consummate
helplessness, it makes me cling to
life's one strand of hope for release
from this hellish fire that wants to
consume my thoughts, my feel of
the world, my desire to breathe in
essence -

But defeat swathes me... and I yield!

Raquel Castellón This is a heartbreaking stone. You draw your pain with so bright and frightening colours that almost i can feel it. I'm so sorry, Sonja. I hope that you get better soon with rest and love. I send you lovely thoughts of recovery.

Pam Niles So intense; your words made me tighten. Pain. How to cope? Maybe with the defeat there was some release (the last line?).

Marcia Weaver Sounds awfully painful, sorry! This reminds me of a Rumi quote about focusing on pain instead of ignoring it. Bringing it to light relieves. All will be well.
