I actually had a period when I thought my writing was, well, not so great, but this poem is what seemed to spark my inspiration again. :) I wrote this at a dark point where I was re-evaluating myself in general, shortly after breaking up with my boyfriend.

Oh, and let me explain the part about my hair. I suppose, to me, it was a symbol of some sort: a symbol of who I used to be. I cut off my long, curly, thick hair for short, straight hair right before my family moved and "started over". Just to clear up confusion. Haha, it seems like I just randomly started talking about my hair in there.
