Poem Collection - MythOfHappiness - 23. Shoelace

I wonder how it feels to be a shoelace

all knotted up

or loose, dragging on the ground

occasionally stepped on.

Grabbed roughly,

unknown hands twisting my body

into painful shapes

so constant they are almost

a comfort

to be given a purpose

even unwillingly

what an honor.
