Everybody had pairs of shoes
That looked so perfect and nice
They carried it with elan
And to their great delight
However, when I saw a pair
Across the aisle in a store
I picked it up and took a whirl
And happy feet finally found a soul
For many a time, I took my new friend
With a walk with me
Found solace in its company
As it kept my feet so clean
As the days went by I found
It became a bit lose and then would fall down
It slowly started to lose its sheen
And its shape as well
I still tried it however, now and then
Finally there came a day
When my favorite pair just wouldn't fit
Isn't that how life can be
One day something fits, another day
Different as can be
What was, isn't now anymore
I loved my shoes
And will always evermore
But the day has come to bid adieu
To the pair that gave me happiness so anew
Would I buy another pair?
Maybe so, cause life is fair
What was at one time, isn't anymore
Only cause what is to come
Will suit me even more so
Change is the only constant you see
Shoes like life, move on and see
Each has a reason and a season to be
What I wore in winter, in summer can never be
Therefore my friend
Smile and know
Don't fret to throw away
Those shoes that don't fit anymore
