Period

Sitting in class and my stomach hurt 

never felt this pain , can’t even focus on my work 

keep looking at the time , hoping it goes by fast 

cramping and suffering , how long will this last ?

we’re finally dismissed  and now I can rush home

hoping no ones in , so I can grief alone

rush to the toilet and see a lot of blood

Asking “ am I dying “ to the man above 

utterly confused , going through a lot of emotions

Tried to stay quit , don’t wanna cause any commotion 

I’m a woman now , since I got my period 

i guess all that I was doing wasn’t all that serious
