Can you tell me a story about Laura and her Mom?
alright. well, first off, put on ālauraā by PHOX. pull up the lyrics, too, if you can. good? good. here we go:
so lauraās mom used to do these really pretty french braids for laura all the time. laura loved them because they were just so so nice and she felt really special with them.
when her mom was getting more sick it was harder for her to do them, so papa hollis used to step in and try (he failed miserably and her mom had to always fix them a bit, but god bless him for trying).
letās go back to the song:Ā Oh girl, what are you doing there? /Ā Youāre cutting off all your hair?
so because laura is too good for this world she decides sheās going to cut off the long hair she loves and donate it for cancer.Ā she sits in the hairdresserās chair and stares at her long locks falling to the ground, but sheās kind of smiling because she really feels like sheās finallyĀ doingĀ something.
her mom passes away about a month later. laura was 10 at the time, so she knew that the hair thing wasnāt some magical cure or could actually stop what was happening to her mom. but she was also still aĀ kid,Ā and believed in miracles and hope and magic.Ā
so when sheās at the funeral she stares at herself in the mirror and justĀ hatesĀ her new hair, prompting:Ā āi couldnāt even be pretty for her on this big day.ā
