The Scare

“My Period is late! Oh, no!”
That is what you say.
Simple friends will be worried,
Maybe for a day.

But as for me, my best friend,
This is something I can not endure.
I come over every single day,
And check your bathroom trash until I’m sure.

Day four rolls by,
After the scare.
Empty tampon wrappers! What a relief.
That’s how you know I REALLY care!
