Snip
Cut
Shave
Pluck
Pull
Tweeze
Hair?
Please
It’s tricky
To hide it
The mirror?
You can’t fight it
Touch it, twist it
This one’s wrong
Too thick, too dark
Too split, too long
It’s tricky
Cause they’re not the same
It’s tricky
Trying to look sane
It’s tricky trying to be me
It’s tricky
Being so Trich-y

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

This is VERY well written! I love the play on words at the end, and the way you've portrayed it. Good job! =]
