A Poem On Dysmenorrhea by zainabope: 12:34am On Dec 13, 2017 |
I am writing about pain. The pain few girls have had to experience every month. The type of pain I've felt one too many times that has made me feel like ripping out my uterus and saying enough is enough. The pain that has made me talk to my aunt who is a nurse about tying my Fallopian tube (mind I say she told me "that's a white woman thing,we Nigerians have juju following us and have children to bear so it can't be an option". The pain that has caused me to read several articles about what to stop eating(which includes everything I obviously like) The pain that once made me think of having children now now now because I read that immediately you have children the pain stops. She was the most excruciating of pains Ah! Thank God she just lasts for 4 days Always accompanied with her siblings; Fever, Vomiting and Diarrhoea Walking to the restroom So impossible My legs have failed me Hated it! I'm better off if I could just sleep For just a little while I forget Till I awake again Sleep is the perfect anesthesia I can count on my twin to understand We endure the same pain The rest do not understand When alone, They discuss me with their subconcious I look weak to them They don't say it But I know How would you endure labour pain I read the words from their eyes Idip ubiak enye anam afo udiagha mkpo? My concerned mom always asks This is my experience with period cramps. Visit https://pinchofchel./2017/12/11/dysmenorrhea/ 1 Like
