Barefoot
as i walk out the door,
 i glance down at my shoes lying against the wall
 no thanks.
 i savor the burn as my bare feet
 hit the sidewalk
 this is how it always used to be
 no shoes, never
 but it gets different as you grow up
 people think you're crazy
 if you don't wear shoes
 going without shoes
 is like stepping into a picture of myself
 from when i was four years old
 not a care in the world
 and nothing to hold me back
