Hey Guys! For anyone who's reading my multi-chapter One in A Million I wanted to try my hand at a free verse because they seem to be like TAKING OVER fanfiction... lol... so I hope to have 2 more chapters to you by the end of the month, AT LEAST one! You can't blame me!!! I uploaded tons lately, and its not like I left you on a cliffie!! =) For anyone who's NOT reading my multi-chappy... shame on you, go read it! And reveiw! Please and thank you!!!! You know you want to...

So this is like really weird... Really. I just thought It looked like fun to write a random free verse and bold/underline/italicize random words... heehee =) So I wrote this down on my phone while doing my hair... except I was straightening it... not curling it... and it didn't come undone... but whatever!

I'm really new at this and i really did randomly make words look weird.. so give me a break!


Curling Iron

by Sunnyvalley

You stare at your reflection in the m i r r o r

You slowly, unwillingly relax your face as you realize it has been tense for the last hour

You put the curling iron down and turn to face you fear fully

But the hard work and time you spent...

Made no d i f f e r e n c e

So you want to s c r e a m

You shake and whimper because its the m e t h o d you use to show rage

Sunny little Sonny's not a l l o w e d to behave that way

What was the p o i n t of this you ask?

And you find you can't remember

Why bother with your h a i r so much

Today is the "now" and tomorrow is the "never"

Isn't it supposed to be now or never?

You cool off slowly as you shake your head

Because sunny little Sonny can't have thoughts like t h a t in her head

You sigh and you groan (inside of course) because you always look cheerful

Turning to the mirror you b e c o m e sunny little Sonny and put on that annoying "glass half full" attitude

You focus on the hairs sticking out

B e c a u s e

He said you were like them

Trying to fit in with the rest but not s u c c e e d i n g

Plain and Boring and Brown

That guy was always thinking about h a i r...

You remember why you do this, you do this to be unique

You need a new pep talk, this one's not gonna cut it anymore

And you try and make it t h r o u g h the day

Your hair looks much better, c u r l y and full of life

Satisfied? Yes

Happy?

You should be, but you're not

Off to Tawni's p a r t y

You smile and laugh and dance because

That's what "Sonny"'s do

But you don't n o t i c e until you come back and

The t e a r s really start to flow

When you realized what had h a p p e n e d

You're curls have come undone

Despite your time and focus

And you go back to thinking

What was the point?...

-------

Your curls will come undone,

As does your smile and most other things

The things you work so hard to build

Will all have their expire date

So your hair returns to its normal self

Long

Brown

Straight

Plain... and Boring

The same way your glitzy, sparkling smile can't always hide the real Sonny

-------


That was sufficiently dark and depressing... I don't really like showing Sonny this way because I believe that people CAN actually be blessed and happy... I mean, there's no reason why Sonny has to be hiding secrets, or have bulemia or whatever... Although I HAVE read A LOT of good fics where like, Sonny's bulemic and Chad's a druggie.. Aww they made me cry... lol they did, I'm such a softie... But I don't see why Sonny CAN'T have a blessed family or something...

So I thought I would just catch her at a moment of insecurity... LOLZ its about hair... =)

Always,

Sunnyvalley
