in love with a headache

i sat down with my head
pounding, to write a poem for
you
i sat down lacking the
motivation to breathe, and
i wrote a poem for you
the lines write themselves and
the poem takes form for you
your love clouds my mind
and pulses against my ears
my fingers cannot hold the pen
but the poem is done
