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.

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.
