the new is not so new anymore

the new is not so new
anymore.

what we buy or rent
loses its shine

in no time.
whether car or shoe.

or that dress or coat
you once wore.
that you
could never part with,

now heaped in a pile
destined

for another set of eyes
and hands
for them to adore,

perhaps
they'll make use of it
as you once did.

to favor and love,

which brings me back
to you,
once more.
