Painkiller
The Advil I take
for the recurring headache
is slowly dying.
But the sound of your velvety laugh
makes it all better.
You’re my painkiller.
The Midol I take
for the menstrual stomach ache
helps only when you're beside
me rubbing it all better.
You’re my painkiller
Your peppered kisses
all over my face
help better than the
Orajel I take for
my toothache.
You’re my painkiller.
But all the pain relief
That I take won’t
help the Heartache
you left to make it all better.
You were my Painkiller.
