That Thumping Thought

That aching feeling in the back of your head,
Yes, that one. The one you thought was dead,
It has been resurrected in a single act,
No use denying the nonsense fact.

That drumming flicker in the heart of your mind,
That one guilty pleasure, the peace you will find,
Has been slashed in a stand-alone swipe of harm,
Tempting for you to bid farewell to calm.

That grinding guess in the depth of your soul,
That regretful, broken, yet plausible goal,
Could creep out in one flurry of pause,
To unveil, reveal the second cause.

That thumping thought at the pit of your heart,
Has been waiting, holding on since the start,
Willing itself to stay back in the shade,
Hoping it's ever-existence shall fade.
