Shoes to Fill

“You have large shoes to fill!”
“Walk in their shoes!”
“If I was in your shoes...”
On and on...

Each foot is different
Yours might be larger
But mine are wider
Yours might have walked there
But mine have swam there

Why should I have to fill your shoes?
Why can’t I where my own?

Each foot is unique
So is the shoe that goes with it
The shoe were molded a certain way

When we swap shoes it is uncomfortable
It is not the way it is meant to be

My shoes will take me one directions
It is not a bad thing!
Yours came from a different direction
It was a good thing!

Your shoes can keep going that way
My shoes are going this way

Our paths might cross
They might travel together
Or go different ways
But the different paths create the Art work of life!

I am going to keep my shoes on
And fill only my shoes!
Your shoes are great!
But your much better at wearing them!
