Day 261 of 366: Merrell Shoes

If we only knew back then 

That it was the last

I would've bought it

With my little cash

But I was a child

With nothing much

So what can I do 

But watch him fawn

Over those shoes

But now with what I have 

And what I earned

I could buy those damn shoes 

Three times over

I could even add

A cap and a shirt

Heck, I'd even buy a donut

Just for the kicks

But all the money I have 

I had, or will have

Will never send you back

I could buy those shoes now

But the wearer is nowhere in sight

So what's the point of it?
