Earache.... Poem by karen sinclair

Earache....



How should I start this?
Sighs

Deafening bubbling disturbing
Throbbing
Depressive
Aching
Repetitive
Two minutes apart
Aching
Throbbing
Hurting....

Tight behind my right ear
Deep within
Shots at my withered brain

Callous little blighter
Think I just a....

Might as well go
Insane...... Aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
