The ones you were so excited about getting.
The ones that you wore oh so proudly on the football field every Friday night at halftime.
The ones that when you were walking in them you couldn't have been happier.
They were the kind that made you feel like you were 6 feet tall and walking on air.
Yes, those boots.
The white ones.
With the zippers on the insides and the scuffs on the toes and heels.
The ones you loved oh so very much.
Well you tried them on today, and they don't feel so proud anymore.
It was sort of a bittersweet feeling.
The kind that aches in your stomach and gives you a lump in your throat.
I hate that feeling.
I hate this feeling.
It hurts.
Sadness, loneliness.
Whichever way you put it, it still sucks.
