I wrote this for my midterm exam

"Fashion"

I am like fashion-

I'm new by the time  I get here,

But get old as time passes by

I get trendy

But become forgotten

When a new one comes around

I get stuck in the dark

Waiting to be someone new

If only someone could help me

If only someone could help me

Be brand new and trendy

But it's hard as you get older

I don't want to be tied down 

In the dark anymore

But this belt of mine is too tight

The chains around my neck

Are getting rusty

And remove

The bracelets

Are handcuffs that

Won't set me free

I am fashion

I was once new and pure

But now I'm forgotten and old
