Holding On Thru the New Year...

 

 Together since conception
Taken for granted
Never considered you as a blessing
They called you “good”

Hated on

So different from everyone else in the hood
I never took care of you
Like mama said I should
She had you twisted
Trapped into her vision
Changing up your style was forbidden
They say wisdom changed your hue
Or maybe it was just the years
Perhaps the tears
Stress of life
Turning you a grayish white
High times of the 90’s
Contrasting sharply
With the mellowed style
You have today
Hard to see you now
Fading away
I'm not ready to remove you from my life
Revealing
More than I want to show
But clearly you've already began letting go
As we begin the New Year
Someone out there
Feel my pain
And pass some Rogaine

I’m not ready to lose my hair..

ha ha ha...

I really liked this... your sense of humor is perfect for this piece. Pun completely intended...
