Defeat
I used to wear this hair as a badge of courage
That the fire in me would never subside.
But now I find myself broken down
Digested by life.
I used to wear this hair to spite life
To challenge it to a never ending duel.
But now I find myself defeated
Incapacitated if you will.
I used to wear this hair as a declaration
That I would always be spunky.
But now I find myself deflated
Unable to continue on.
