We are like two pairs of shoes
You and I
Those that walk in unison
That have travelled down roads
Some would find it hard to endure
Down the same path
We walk in unison
Same pace, side by side
Heading for
Our dream
Our home
Our haven
We are shoes that dance when no one is around
We dance to the same song you and I
Slowly
Rhythmically
Always in time
So we never to step on each other’s feet!
But sometimes we avoid other people’s shoes
Not to avoid walking in them- no
But because other peoples shoes have a tendency
Of treading on your toes
And kicking you in the shins
And stomping on you when you’re down
But for some
We are shoes that will walk a thousand miles
To carry them home
Because we care enough
About the one’s we love
When times get hard
And they are heavy with burden and
Can no longer walk
We will carry them home
And at night when the moon has risen in the sky
Our shoes they sit side by side
Sharing the darkness of the night
Until it is morning and again they walk in unison
