Ride the Tide

With how much that it happens,

I know I shouldn't care.

But I have to be picky,

With the pants that I wear.

Blood sure does stain,

~Not a pretty sight.

Maybe you're lucky,

And you get yours light.

I can't have such luck,

Oh no, not me.

I have to put up,

With abnormality.

Between tampons pads,

I just can't deal!

Losing your uterus...

Yup, IT'S REAL!

I take my pills,

And they go by the bottle.

And of course, by mid-day,

It's flowin' full throttle.

Just when I think,

I'll never run out.

Not a tampon in sight,

And THAT leaves no doubt.

After all of the cramps,

I HAVE to be cursed.

Blessed with a period,

Is the complete worst!

With maxis as long,

As they are wide...

It's not fun to surf,

The crimson tide!

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Yes, it is OBVIOUSLY a woman's poem. Sorry boys. :0) It's a horrible thing... but in a way I'm proud to have the choice of bearing a child.
