I'm on my period.
I know that's not an excuse
but I just feel so shitty.
And if I was a bird,
I might poop
on someone's head
just to feel better.
My back hurts
and my thoughts
are all over the place.
I'm angry with the whole world
because I'm bloated,
and I feel like
I've lost all the progress
that I've made
in the past few weeks,
phisically and mentally.
In moments like this,
I cuss the one
that invented periods and pains
through which every woman must go.
I dispise the government
that makes us pay
for the neccessities
that should be
a right, not a privilidge
for all the women around the world.
And I lowkey hate myself
for hating the privilege
that I as a woman have:
the chance to bear a child,
once,
maybe.
But right now,
I am just so mad
that I do not care
what the future will bring.
I just want to be
the way I was
before the hurricane hit:
confident,
stable.
Me at all.
