I Love My Shoes

I Love My Shoes

I’ve known you since 1979

We have been together for so long

But not everyone cares about you

Many women told me to trash you

Throw you away like garbage

But look who is still here

Now, I know you are worn out

Threadbare beyond what should be

Tattered and torn at pretty much every seam

I will never get rid of you

Even though you have holes where the toes should be

I know that we have many years left

Many miles left to travel together

So, rest easy my best friends

You have a home now and forever
