"Curlssss Rockkkkkk"

Curly hair- How do I handle you?

Not a typical Polish girl’s trait 

Standing out like a red bush 

and making me uneasy

I get this nauseous feeling 

I just look so… different 

 

I could have straightened it

Or maybe just my bangs 

Wait! My favorite singer does too?

She’s Romanian, not Polish

Who cares?! Who knew?

We have something in common! 

 

I guess that’s it then. 

I’ll go curly. Just like her.

I’ll be brave and try something new. 

I won more than I knew. 

Trying to keep my head up straight

when letting my locks loose 

 

Riding on the bus

Chilling on Instagram 

Inna posted: Here’s my selfie

Tag yours with #selfinna

and I thought no way, scroll, scroll, 

Closed the app, reopened it, maybe?

 

10 minutes later 

Total SHOCK

Inna said my "Curlssss Rockkkkkk!!!"

My curly haired muse!

Why was I sitting on a bus when reading this news?

I just want to scream and shout "Mu Curls Rock!"
