Black

You cannot run your fingers through my Hair
A scalp massage would be lovely though
Please go ahead Dear – Don’t let me interfere

Hot combs, relaxers and texturizers – Phew
Manageability by heat and chemicals too
Braids and weaves – OUCH! No more please

I cannot view my Hair from your perspective
Listen you! This Hair of mine is not defective
Being introspective has led me to a new objective

It’s time. I’m going Natural – Do you! Hair
From this day forward, I do thee swear
To love and take care of my Natural Hair

Ladies …

Here and there. However you choose to wear
Please go ahead Dear – Don’t let anyone interfere
