Ode to the lady
That made me feel like I was a whole person
Deserving of human kindness
And compassion
Imagine
I walked in a cess pit of angst and despair
Crawling with regrets
Hair tangled
Heart mangled
She combed out my fears
And washed my hair like she was pulling taffyÂ
Snip snip snip
My self hatred falls to the floor with the wisps of dead ends
This wasn’t just a trip
For a trim
This was an apology to myself
And what a super power
To be able to take absolute garbage
And make it sparkle and glow
Uncover potential and help it shine through
Honestly to the ladies that made me feel beautiful again
Thank you
