Does anyone else get Insomnia as a warning sign or pre-migraine symptom the night before their chronic migraine is due?

Learning to pause, I’ll ease Hemi’s strain
With patience and discipline, I will prevail
Approaching my #resolutions like a Rubik’s cube
One small step at a time
‘Til the climb’s complete

Mind usually sharp
Now blunt under Hemi’s grind
Words betray, tumble out
A jumble spree of god knows what
A circus clown with a cracked crown
#Prompt cruel jests
From those always performing at their best

For many, lavender’s poised #decorum
Graces the air with a calming scent
Its soothing charm detoxes their stress
Yet, within Jayne’s mind, a storm stirs
Thoughts muddle, speech slurs
Pain pinches the bridge of the nose
A trigger, no less, with each breath in,
Hemi’s chaos grows
