Friendships are like Jeans

Friendships are like an old pair of jeans

You are excited when it is new and shining

Sometimes they itch you, irritate you

Many times the zip gets stuck, unwilling to budge

But over time, you fall in love with it

You love it so much not because of its perfection

Rather for its imperfections

Your humdrum fits into it snugly

It is no wonder that friendships

Are the best romances like your old pair of jeans

And the most difficult heartbreaks

Period.
