Scarlett Hanley Poet Free verse

Migraines and Smiley Faces

Put a smile on your face
Walk into the light
Pretend it isn't blinding
Pretend it doesn't hurt

You have a job to do
You have no choice

Do your best to succeed 
Don't cry about it

Put a smile on your face
Walk into the light
Pretend it isn't blinding 
Pretend it doesn't hurt.

M. L. Kiser July 17, 2017 at 1:40 PM Oh, I do know the agony of migraines, but I faint sometimes when I walk into the light; used to have a boss who understood and let me lie down in a dark room with medication for a couple of hours; it was always best to not drive home when having one of those; I miss that boss. Best of luck with yours; courage my poetic friend.
