the anatomical battle

you are my headache
songs of you get stuck in my head
your stupid stupid stupid songs
playing over and over
remembering over and over
me and you
over and over
and over

you are my heartache

our moments of first snows

and midnight drives

came & went

i felt all of it so much.

and i still do.

you are my headache

the kind that keeps me up at night

annoyed

frustrated

eyes rolling

head shaking

dreaming of escape routes

because i deserve better.

you are my heartache

the kind that keeps me up at night

heart racing

sheets tossing

but even though my heart aches,

i'm smiling

you are my headache

an unbalanced equation

i don't know how to solve you for e(x)

and i can't figure out wh(y)

you are my heartache

after all this time

i still can't figure out

what is coming

between u

and i

you are my headache

my migraine

my heart is numb to your pain

but my mind is not.

yet i still can't say goodbye.

you are my heartache

but not my heartbreak

my heart aches 

because it swells

and it's warm

when i'm around you

you are my headache

and you are not worth my time

but you are my heartache

and you are.

some pain is worth being felt.

and some just isn't.

choose the pain
that makes you feel more alive.
