Headaches

Too severe to be simply a headache
Pain radiates down my neck and into my back
Throbbing sets my teeth on edge
Barometric pressure going crazy
Is it the stress of too much school work?
Or could it be the barking of a little dog?
Perhaps I'm catching a cold
No, it must be the snow
In winter snow will bring them
Spring allergies are a cross to bear
Summer's heat causes its own ache
And pain within my cerebral cavity
While the storms of fall bring the pain on a daily basis
I know headaches do not reside in Heaven
No pain will I feel there
Almost makes me want to hasten the trip
The devil's foothold on my soul
Lives within this pain
Prayer can keep it all at bay
He puts a cold compress to my brow

Author Notes
I know this has no rhyme and no proper form; it came from sitting here and watching to clock for it to be the next time I could take some pain relief!
