Jeans

I made the decision to finally part with a pair of jeans that I've owned for nine years that I still wear! But they are literally falling apart =(

You see, I decided to purge a lot of stuff in light of my recent move and it was time, but getting rid of these particular jeans was difficult for me, as they have come to have sentimental value. I couldn't bare the idea of throwing them out without a few last words. They inspired me. And now I share my inspiration with you...

Ode to my Oldest Jeans

Old friend,

You’ve known me since before high school,
Where tight jeans were the golden rule,
But as my style has grown and changed,
My go-to jeans you have remained.

You’ve been witness to every fun mistake,
Back when I thought men were a piece of cake.
Without fail you’ve fit me right,
Making my ass look hot and tight.

But through the years your seams have been ripped apart,
And not just because of my stinky farts.
I EARNED the holes that developed on your perfect denim,
You weren’t some sell out jeans with holes already in them.

But alas, the placement is too weird,
I wouldn’t want anyone to see my downstairs beard.
And so our journey has come to its end,
But I won’t let you be a forgotten friend.

As I send you off to where jeans go to die,
Find comfort in these words as my last goodbye:

You are LOVED, my tried and true!
I’ll miss every inch of your faded blue!
And even though we now must part,
You will always, ALWAYS, be close to my heart!
