Shoe Size

When he tried on her shoes
He walked through her pain
He wiped away her tears
And the blood she drained.

He tightened the laces
And ran along her path
He thought she was evil
Until he fell in cracks.

He thought the opposite of love is hate
But didn’t feel it when he tried on her shoes
He took her shoes off and put his shoes on
His ego turned his hate to love.

To feel love is to feel everything
To feel the opposite is to feel nothing.
