It was all so simple really…all her worries and cares just don’t matter anymore

It was all so simple really…
all her worries and cares just don’t matter anymore
In fact, she realized, they never were important in the first place….
She realized that now.
Sitting in the chair, at the Salon…
the gentle fingers working, swirling, twisting shaping
her hair
She realized that…
no
her fears, her worries her troubled thoughts
just did not matter
anymore
she realized
her hair
swirling
the fingers
gentle yet strong
her thoughts
just didn’t matter

anymore
