Only Made it Worse

I felt as if my head were on fire
as if someone had hit the back of my head
with a heavy torch

I felt as if my head were exploding
as if someone had inserted dinamite
into my cranium

I felt as if my head was being constantly knocked on
as if a woodpecker were hanging
from my ear

I tried to contain a scream
a scream that went unheard by everyone
but myself

Every bright light
every loud noise, every sudden movement
only made it worse

I didn't know where it came form
I didn't know how bad
it would get

I go now to lay down and get some rest
