Looking for help
By Lisa Noe

I look
I’m seeking aid
Looking for someone’s help
Pain resides within myself
For days I’ve laid
No hook

Five days
Every month
I’m sick to my belly
Throwing stuff up smelly
Doctors on hunt
They say

No cure
No known causes
Here I sit just crying
Knowing no more dying
Are they all frauds
Not sure
