-headache-
In total darkness
my head is pounding
pain lurking in the back of my eye lids
body's weak
Stomach is nauseous
shivering as goose bumps race up and down my body
I toss and turn in bed
unable to relax
Taken four to six pills
cold wash cloth over my head
pillow pulled tight over my eyes
but, nothing seems to work
Ways to cure my pounding head
control my breathing, calmly in and out
clear my mind, slowly falling asleep
and vision sweet ecstasy with you in my head
