The Visitor From Hell

A visitor will soon arrive To interrupt my simple life Causing me a lot of pain There is nothing much to gain When "she" comes and doesn't leave Putting me through so much grief I don't know why this cruel joke is played Getting worse day after day Torture, misery, distress "She" gives me these and nothing less Suffering because I know I can't stop the steady flow Aches, torment and agony Is everything "she" gives to me Sticking with me year to year I get a very scary fear As the time comes for this visit I can't pray or even wish it Not to create all this havoc I'm not the only one who has it Every woman who is born Gets ripped apart, even torn With severeness every month Making us bloat, cramp and munch For three to five steady days Grateful when it goes away

OH Robin I can so relate to this - No wonder it is called 'the curse' - wish it was only 3 - 5 days for me though! hugs Jan xxx
