Write a fiction or non-fiction story in poetry or prose about the lifetime of an accessory, (a bracelet, watch, favorite pair of shoes, anything you wear every day) from when you get it to the time you must throw it away through this object's eyes. Make sure to include moments in your life your accessory has seen you through; relationships, big tests, the loss of a pet, anything you would like to include.

This year I didn’t lay out an outfit for the fourth,
This year I wore all blue
I didn’t want to represent the other side,
Not today.
This year we didn’t go to the parade
I don't know you.
I knew your laugh and the way your eyes crinkled,
I knew that you loved chocolate and hated shrimp,
I knew everything about you,
But I don't know you.
Not anymore.
When I was younger I used to ask my mom what her favorite color was and she said she didn’t have one.
This confused me,
How could one go through life without a favorite color?
