Solemates (A Poem)
It’s love at first sight
A magic portal
A mood
That one dream pair
That fits just right
The quickest costume change, or
Confidence boost
Stepping into them
Is like the world opening up
Choose your own adventure
No midnight curfew
Road trips, coffee dates
Fancy dinners with
Family and friends
Or simply
Dancing in grocery aisles
Shoefies in the garden
Whatever you are ready for
Your magic pair
Will take you
There.
And when you’ve lost
Your way
Shoes you love
Can feel like
Home
Assuring you:
Your path is
Your own;
Cinderella magic
You can create yourself
Move forward in
the direction
And pace
(And shoes!)
You choose
Gracefully
Confidently
Joyfully
Stepping into
You.
