I walked a mile in your boots, <br />But they weren't for me. <br />They blistered my feet and made them bleed. <br /> <br />You spent a day in my skin, <br />But it didn't quite fit. <br />You stretched it, misused it and it made you itch. <br /> <br />I lived a day with you; your boots my skin. <br />And it wasn't so painful to do. <br />So whereas I'm not so comfortable in your boots, <br />I'm perfectly fine with you.<br /><br />Akua Achampong<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/comfortable-in-my-skin-not-so-much-in-your-boots/
