Boys are like shoes.
There are ones that you totally love
And you just can't live without them.
There are also ones that are ugly
And wouldn't even bother picking up
Then they are ones that are totally beautiful
But break on you easily
Some shoes give you comfort
And make your feet feel safe
Then they are the ones that hurt
And then your feet start to ache
You can never know if the ones on your feet
Are going to last a long time
Or if you wear them for a day
And then they just get thrown away.
