They say after heartbreak, a haircut
A clean slate for every mistake
But now I’ve no hair left for cutting
And even less heart left to break

i love you i hate you

i would say its about love and her giving her all but yet the person dont love her back so she/he (idont really know if this is a guy or girl)  tries and tries again but yet dont get no love back so she gives her heart out little by little like a hair cut till she dont have nothing left

I actually don't remember - it's been a while since it happened, sadly. But I don't remember it taking too long - a couple weeks at most. How long has it been since they told you they were going to publish it?

I love this! i have a short poem too and its just so much feeling into such a short amount of words that it really makes an impact and makes it so much stronger than any other words could describe:)

&quot;it&#039;s better to be hated for who you are, than to be loved for what your not...&quot;<br /> &quot;life isn&#039;t measured by the number of breaths you take but by the number of moments that take your breath away&quot;

this was really good. says so much but yet so simple

Life is too short to wake up with regrets.So love the people who treat you right, forget the ones that dont.Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it&#039;d be worth it.

I love how you say it so simply with subtle rhyme. it sounds smooth and graceful, not as if you are trying to pathetically rhyme it. I enjoyed it! Keep up the good work!
