My Old Shoes

My Old Shoes

Look at my new shoes
How they sparkle and shine
They let me run fast
They let me jump high
But they need breaking in

As months pass
Mud stains and souls give way
Although comfort is had
My shoes no longer sparkle
Nor shine
Only to my eyes
Do they seem even brighter
An inseparable piece

Look at my old shoes
How well they fit my feet
I could never part
With my old shoes
