when you hear that word what do you think? the german brand right? yeah...
for me it's a reminder of one of the best people i knew.
i remember him standing in front of the mirror and opening the box of hair dye. i asked him what kind of rubbish company had he chosen, "schwarzkopf? that's the best one out there, silly" is what he replied.
i ended up in germany decades later and i see this name everywhere.
it reminds me of him.
it reminds me that he's not with us anymore. i cannot talk to him. i cannot ask him about any medical help i need.
it reminds me that i could never say goodbye.
