OMG, ten years ago, when I was more impressionable and gave a crap about what my friends thought, I let them harass and embarrass me over a pair of Pepto-pink low-top Converse sneakers.
I dearly loved those shoes, but I threw them away because I let bullies shame me to the point I couldn't put them back on.
I mourn the loss of those shoes, and I've never forgiven my friends for it.
This reminded me so much of a pair of combat boots I pine for. So many years later.
ReplyDeleteOh combat boots, wherefor art thou?
