Top 

I am your pink top

You liked me a lot

You saw me at the shop

And felt forced to stop

You looked at my price

Wondered if it was wise

Grabbed me from my hanger

And I staggered

I could feel your adrenalin

You thought I was amazing

Decided I was too good to leave

Although I didn’t come cheap

Paid for me with a smile

Marvelled at my style

Wore me with zest

Constantly ironing me lest

Even by a fraction

I lost my attraction

You hung me with care

I felt happy, free from despair

Your friends liked me as well

With perfume I usually smelled

But one day you bought my rival

Your grey top saddened me with its arrival

For it soon became your loved one

 

And I was shunned

Days passed by and months and years

Soon it was just as I had feared

You wore me less and less

I was no longer hung, just left in a mess

The grey acquisition was followed by many

Although they cost a pretty penny

One day I was accidentally torn

At my ravage and hurt I mourned

But even this I tolerated

Stood with breath abated

But today you used me to dust the table

To suppress my anguish I was unable

More insult I do not need

Finally my humiliation is complete
