Professor, my sister just got her period

How can I begin to explain the battle coming her way?Its nothing but easy, it’s a beautiful struggle, I must say.I watched her grow and blossom into the amazing female she is today,Just thinking of all the time I don’t get to see her makes me want to cry –but heyDistance will only make my love for her stronger,I know things happen for a reason but the pain only seems to get longer.Wish I were there physically to guide her through the journey she's about to begin,Wish I could tell her about my experiences and the pain I have within…Just to warn her because unfortunately, no one warned me,The beauty of our relationship is she listens; she won’t let the silence be.The fear in her voice when breaking the news to me will forever be engraved in my mind,I’ve never gone through these emotions and let me say, its no easy climb.My blood, my friend, my sister; she's so oblivious to the harm in this world,If only someone could stop the pain that comes head on to a little girl.However, she needs to be assured that I will be here to be the hand or light she may need for guidance,Any troubles or doubts she may have, with me there “good riddance”.She must know to help heal any wound I will climb any mountain, clean thoroughly the streets of any city,I want her to know that she can count on me until the end of numbers; infinity.
