I’m getting so close with the story I chose.

…should finish by sunrise, my summer proposed.

It’ll cost me some hairs, but there’s plenty to spare.

And about my locked hair, it’s dreaded and black—

Not horrid or dark, but wavy like slacks.

…almost down to my back and growing like weeds.

I remember day one, when I chose to grow free.

It was like that first day, with hopes big as the sea.

But I broke through rogue waves,

And wrote my first page.

Now look… long hairs,

Five books and,

…who cares 📚
