a very simple couplet

the shoes i once loved are in the trash
dirty, left behind with the dust
the breaking in pain
long past
my feet are clean
no holes in the soles
neat and pristine
i feel like a queen
as i walk down the street
with brand new shoes
quiet and neat
i think of the old
better now are my feet
as my wardrobe is once again complete.
