I Am a Woman

Every month, I loose blood.
My , abdomen, every part of my body - gives me pain..
For days.. I cry, I hardly move.
I'm a woman that owns a complicated body.
 that bleeds and breasts that are hard to carry..
But does that matter? 
when from my  an infant comes
and when my breasts give milk and warmth.
Every pain comes to its minimal
then grows beautiful
when it comes to know its significance.
I share every part of my body,
giving its everything
..to such an extent,
that my body remains not mine
it shares its owner.

A brave poem, sweetening a subject that is not popular, and is often not seen in a poem. Welcome to Poetry Soup, Aastha. I am eager to see your other works.
