The perfect fit
You are like my favorite pair of jeans that I will always love.
I put them away in the back of the closet and forget about them.
But eventually I'll look for something back there and when I see them I can't help but pull them out and try them on.
And they always fit just right and are comfortable and perfectly worn in all the best ways.
And somehow when I wear them everything feels right with the world for just a minute and I'm taken back to this perfect moment.
But I know I can't wear them everyday or they will get too worn and tear or fade and the beauty will be ruined.
So I look at them with longing and I put them in the back of the closet again.
I put them away in the back of the closet and forget about them.
But eventually I'll look for something back there and when I see them I can't help but pull them out and try them on.
And they always fit just right and are comfortable and perfectly worn in all the best ways.
And somehow when I wear them everything feels right with the world for just a minute and I'm taken back to this perfect moment.
But I know I can't wear them everyday or they will get too worn and tear or fade and the beauty will be ruined.
So I look at them with longing and I put them in the back of the closet again.
