Adidas Cloud Foams

Emily Laliberté.

She is grey on the outside.

Practical, but not too exciting.

But her sole is soft as clouds,

an open mind, and open heart, never harsh.

The laces of life are speckled with darker grey spots,

one for each mishap or mayhem,

but she wouldn’t change that.

A neat little knot packages up her life

into the clean exterior she presents.

Underneath the packaging she is worn,

but remains resilient.

— Emily Laliberté
