Unaware it was still attached
couldn't feel it
didn't see it
until it was pushed.
A few dings
some scratches
even a bit of rust,
yet uncannily familiar
when it was pushed.
Old buttons
can do that
reminders of the past
searching
for their garment
waiting to be pushed.
But the apparel is new
old buttons don't fit
they just won't fasten
no matter how hard
they're pushed.
