A Day in the Life of a Headache

Sabrina Wirey

 

Pounding... aching...
 I must be driving her crazy.

 She runs for the bottle of Motrin,
 but I can't be eliminated.

 As she lies staring at the ceiling,
 I am the one keeping her awake.

 Pounding on her temples with my iron
 fists,
 I make it impossible for her to
 think.

 You may ask why I would do this to        
 someone.
 Why would you cause her so much
 pain?

 As you ask me this I am causing her 
 ears to ring.
 She needs to lie down again.

 As I create a whirlwind of dizziness
 in her skull, I laugh loudly inside.

 She falls, like a boulder into her
 bed, as I continue to throw my 
 shield up at the never ending waves
 of medicine coming at me.

 I will continue this series of
 events until she gives up.
 I honestly don't know why she tries.

 As her alarm clock goes off, I
 realize it is time to start my new 
 day, and as soon as she stands up I
 start in again.
 
 On her way to the bathroom I throw a
 wave of dizziness at her and she
 stops.

 As she continues on, I begin kicking 
 my tiny feet into her brain.
 All I want is to have the
 satisfaction of her defeat.

 Slowly, she stops, heads back for (continued)
 her bed, climbs in and pulls the
 covers over her head.

 A-ha! Defeat! She has finally given
 in to my painful cries for 
 attention!

 With my new found glory, I begin
 jumping up and down in her head in
 celebration.

 She lets out a long groan and
 reaches for the Motrin.

 Pounding...aching...
 I have officially driven her crazy.
