Girl Dyed Her Hair

There was a

girl, girl

dyed her

hair, hair

got

red, red

got every-

where.

 

Her hair

bled, bled

down the

drain, drain

clogged

up, up

the red came

again.

 

She tried to

keep, keep

her passion

tame, tame

the

beast, beast,

who always

stained.

 

But after many

nights, nights

spent al-

one, one

drove her

out, out

of her

home.

 

She followed

him, him

and his white

shirt, shirt

got red

quick, quick

-ly he was

hurt.

 

She tried to

flee, flee

so he could

live, live

a happy

life, life

without

strife.

 

but,

 

The man

smiled, smiled

a pinkish

grin, grin

-ning because his

hair, hair

was her's

twin, twin

hair was

blue, blue

like the

sea, see

his hair runs

too,

and

two

plus one makes a purple

family.

Notes

There is a specific type of poem that has lines that begin and end with the same words. I completely forget what it is called, but this is sorta that sort of thing.
