No, I don't write most of my poems when I'm on the rag
I know what you are thinking right now and you shouldn't think that.
I'm neither homicidal nor sane, but rather, very long-suffering to thoughtfulness.
I don't write any of my poems when I am on the rag because
I don't have periods the same way other women do.
Why waste those days writing about the people I dislike
When I dislike them even when I'm not on my period?!
For fear of being too damn descriptive, I'll say it like this:
The river runs red for four days and then it is back to normal.
I'm just naturally an angry person, ask my mom! She don't like me much!
Neglect and hate and torment from many people has made me realize
That I can say whatever I want and no one will think twice
About whether it is true or false or gay.
My dad has read a few of my poems about my wanting to attempt suicide
(And the times I've tried and failed with no one knowing I was even trying)
And he hasn't come up to me asking me what's up! So I ask you,
Do you think I'm being unfair by raging on some people who never tried
To lend me the help I needed?
Because I didn't get the help, I am far from being saved, helped, relieved.

*someone left such a comment on my site and I was wondering who it was. 'FESS UP. I won't hurt you, just wanted to give credit to he/she who inspired me to write this one.
