Pain (How my mind feels)

Poem By: boneman
Other


A piece about pain and the effect it has on your mental state along with the medication.....

It is a plea for understanding as much as anything.....

Warning does contain strong language for which I make no apologies...... View table of contents...

Badly fried today, my head has been opened and my brain scrambled about, too many things inside today, too many voices too many sounds too many questions. Still trying to work out what is today what was yesterday what is tomorrow except an extension of today……
 
The house of cards is rickety, someone should condemn my brain as unfit for human habitation. Knock it down and start again build something useful like a school or a church something someone can get some use out of. Maybe someone has shuffled the deck and dropped the cards all over the floor. Some are lost forever under the furniture some are chewed up by the dog. There are not enough jokers to replace the cards that are missing.
 
Maybe a magician has done a magic trick with them, the cards that make up my mind. He has done a vanishing trick and can’t remember which pocket he hid them in………. I wish to God he would find them again.
 
Is this today ? is this now ? is this last week ? is this a new year or merely an invention to created to sell diaries and calendars. Time is an illusion, if we spend time living does that also mean that our lives are an illusion. If so who is having this dream ?
 
Why would anyone dream me ? why would anyone imagine my pain right now ? is this a cruel game played by a sadistic child who pulls the wings off a fly ?
 
WHY THE FUCK WOULD SOMEONE IMAGINE THIS ?
 
Maybe I should just be a good dog and take my drugs……………. Maybe I should just shut the fuck up moaning and take the medication. Take the pills and sit slumped in my chair staring blindly at the TV while it tries to sell me things I don’t need I cant afford but come with free postage and a lifetime warranty. ……… While I sit stoned watching a reality show about a woman who has 15 children from 15 men takes crack but wants to be forgiven by God and her white trash mother who also doesn’t know who the fathers are…….. I mean if people want to humiliate themselves why do it in public ?
 
It all renders down in the end……………. In the end it comes down to basics, almost said “down to the nitty gritty” but the origin of that is too horrific to contemplate…. Ok it all comes down to brass tacks…….. pain, drugs and the fucked up contents of my head……. Not sure if they are related, if they are related which one is the daddy? I no longer know which one came first, the pain, the medication or the fucked up mind…..
 
I’m sick of it all !!!!!!!!!!!! sick of the pain the drugs the bullshit and the well meaning fucking interfering therapists.
 
I’m sick of it all and want out!!!!! Right fucking now !!!
 
Tell me about your pain they ask me……… What do you wanna know ? It hurts it really really hurts……….. Not enough she says………. Not enough explanation……. Tell me about your inner pain tell me about the pain tell me about the pain you have inside your head, we need to know we have a right to open your head and see what is inside………. I have letters after my name that give me the right to sit here in my expensive office on my expensive chair drinking expensive coffee running up an expensive bill to pay for my expensive education that cost more than you will earn in a year. “That” she says “gives me the right so spill the beans……….. spill the fucking beans or we will find another way to get into your head and I assure you, you won’t like it one little bit………”
 
“ Remember the longer it takes to cure you the more money I can screw out of people so I can wait all day if necessary I get paid by the hour. You think I come cheap ? While we on the subject how often do you cum ? How often do you fuck ? How do you like to fuck ? With women or with men ? Or do you prefer sadism a bit of pain to help you get there ? Its ok there’s only me and my secretary reading your notes………. Also use you as a case study into so may different types of psychosis and neurosis…… I can make a fortune out of you so save the pethanol and tell me the truth right fucking now……..
 
SHUT THE FUCK UP !!!!!!!!!!!! I WANNA HAVE PEACE AND QUIET DON’T WANNA LISTEN TO YOUR SMUG VOICE TELLING ME WHATS IN MY HEAD………………………
 
Its my head, its my brain its my body I do what I want with it and its none of your business !!!!!!!!!!!
 
Too much to do to many things need sorting too many people after my time and energy too many places to be at the same time too much work to do too many people asking me questions……………
 
Too tired too tired too tired too tired too tired cant sleep cant dream anything but nightmares when I do sleep…………
 
As I lay me down to sleep, I pray the lord my soul to keep
If I die before I wake I pray the lord my soul to take……
 
I pray the lord my pain to take away, I don’t wanna die I don’t want my last memory of life to be pain or a hospital bed, a cold comfort priest standing over me murmuring the last rites and commending me to the arms of God providing of course I have confessed my myriad sins and repented to God………. If I don’t repent ? do I spend eternity with this pain ?
 
TAKE THIS PAIN AWAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
That’s all I ask take this pain away from me .. Please someone take this pain away from me……

This is the worst cliche bullshit I've ever read

if you do not have the common courage to identify yourself please do not leave such offensive comments on other peoples work.

If you can not say anything constructive perhaps its better to keep your small minded opinions to yourself.

Yours in disgust

i feel your pain. the previous comment is out of order. well done for trying to express how you feel. please do not let this type of negative rubbish stop you from expressing how you feel.

Boneman ...You know what they say better out than in ....and everyone has a right to express them selves...when thoughts are locked away people don't always understand the pain......my thoughts be with you today...and here's hoping the pain gets lighter with each passing day..I too am your Booksie friend ..Juliet

I thank you for your kind words Juliet. It took a lot of courage to publish this. I do not intend the comments of one small minded moron stopping me publishing my thoughts and poems.

I appreciate the kind words of support, for now I am sadly stuck with the pain and treatment. I know there are brighter days ahead for me.

Also your booksie friend.....

Peace

Boneman

it would appear that the narrow minded idiot who placed the first comment on this page is in the minority.....

I am adding this extra comment to express my thanks to the majority who are nice enough to leave messages of support and kind thoughts.

Peace

Once again, thank you Lydia !

I do hope for better days and better tomorrows, its important to keep positive and as much as you can don't let it drag you down too much.

Sometimes you just want to feel sorry for yourself as no one can feel your pain or understand the effect it has on your mind when you have a very bad day. This was a very very bad day. But better days are ahead........

As I said elsewhere I will not let one narrow minded idiot ruin my enjoyment of writing and publishing on this site. I left it on as I think you have to show the good and the bad. Its the only totally negative comment I have had.

More soon

Peace

Can't believe how sad you are. This must have been so hard for you to write down. Lol! Is this a poem or a story? No structure. I think you just want people to know you're depressed and pity you. Don't mock the art of writing with your self-absorbed desire to be pitied. Still horseshit. If this is how you write, I'd just stick to crying if i were you. Twat!

I cannot believe what I am reading !

What gives you the right to critise me ? who asked for your opinion ?

If you do not like what I write there is a wonderful invention called the back button, you see something u dont like u dont read it.

I do not ask for anyones pity or sympathy.......

Yours in disgust

Boneman

once again I feel the need to further comment on this work.....

My apologies to the majority who have been taught the basics of common courtesy and the english language. This is directed at one person alone.

I refuse to explain anything I write unless asked in a courteous and polite way. If someone does not understand what I write I would hope they had the common sense to leave a constructive message asking what the piece was about. Not leave personal abuse and foul language.

It just shows that cowards and bullies are as prevelent in cyberspace as they are in real life. The problem with bullies is sooner or later they run into someone who is capable of standing up to them.

In this case that person is me. I refuse to bow to the abuse of one small minded bigot who is incapable of writing anything himself. If he was surely he would be a registered user and have his "Wonderful" work out on display for the delight and excitment of a eager public waiting on his every word.

Do I see anything ? NO

What I do see is a sad lonely person who can only express how he feels with abuse and swearing. I pity you and hope you see the error of your ways and eventually make it out of your parents basement.

As someone once wrote "He cares not to come up any higher, rather drag you down into the hole that he's in"

I hope you are happy in your squalid little hole.... Give my love to the rats and the beetles. You best hurry home mind I think your village is missing its idiot.

Yours still in complete contempt

Boneman

my support for you boneman, i found this torrent of abuse for your work both sickening and disgusting. i was always taught if you have nothing nice to say, say nothing. i think 'peter' could learn from this. KEEP WRITING the majority like your works

My sincerest hope is that as of this posting you’re on your way to recovery. I can certainly sympathize. I had suffered since I was 12 with “acute migraines” – yet it wasn’t discovered until two years ago that I have what is known as vestibular migraines. The pain was so severe I would literally pound my head against the wall while tearing my hair out trying to get the pain to stop. It wasn’t until they started affecting my hearing and balance that the neurologist was finally able to diagnosis me. I can FEEL your pain! There is NO OTHER PAIN WORSE than head pain and I’ve been through many different kinds! When several doses of morphine can’t even touch the pain and all you can do is pray for sleep to help give you at least a few minutes of respite... All I can say is may God be kind to you and allow you to recover quickly!

I thank you for you kind comment.

Although I do not suffer from migranes except when induced by the Morphine I can sympathise with your pain. It does make you feel that you want to destroy your body just to dislodge the pain. Even sometimes contemplate mutilation just to have some relief from the pain.

Morphine is both a curse and a wonder it certainly messes with your mind if it works or not. Sleep is not always easy to find despite the narcotics.

I pray you have found lighter days and may God watch and protect you

Peace

Thank you. As you know, you have good days and bad. I have been blessed that my good days are now out weighing the bad. I hope and pray that soon it will be the same for you. I’m sending you long distance hugs and kisses in hopes it will help you feel better. XOXOX….

Thank you for the hugs and kisses, sending them back to you.

The good days outweigh the bad thanks to my forever friend keeping me living and fighting the battles.

Without her I would not be around......

XOXO and god keep you

Boneman
