Headache

''The Mind's Lament, so Intense''

A pounding drum in a shadowed maze,

A headache’s grip, a darkened haze.

A relentless force, a mind deform.

Sharp and dull, a blinding light.

As the world blurs and sighs go by.

Pressure mounts in a stormy sea,

Where solace seems a distant plea.

A fog descends, heavy and dense,

The mind's lament, so intense.

Hope flickers softly, a gentle light.

In rest and calm, the pain may wane,

Until relief breaks the cycle’s chain.

A fleeting guest in life’s own sphere,

A reminder of resilience, ever near.
