Headache

A dull ache and throbbing
psyche being broken
like clear glass shattering

Thoughts soaked with agony
looking for release
behind a wall of searing nerves

I'm waiting for the miracle
of the little pills I took
to release me from this vice grip

The throbbing gets intense
hurt crashes like waves
behind my tender forehead

But then

The pain starts to clear
a pinprick of sunshine
spreads like a soothing balm

inside my head

The cobwebs break away
and thankfully disappear-
I am myself again.






I don't have headaches like these too often, but I am glad when they're gone!
