Night is here, yet I'm awake

crunched in pain from sweat and shakes 

Swirling 'round around my bed,

squeezing the pillow on top of my head.

I've drunken my tea from the nausea and cramps,

I've changed my pajamas that got so damn damp,

Burning myself, trying to find something hot

to put on my stomach so the hurting would stop.

Advil, Aleve, even Motrin won't work,

stealing dad's oxycodone only makes me a jerk.

But none of it helps and I quietly hurl,

shit, it sucks being a girl.
