Sweater
my cozy,
my warmth
if all fails,
let's drive North
you are exactly what I
need on these cold days
you could be my true
love for the holidays
polyester and
sheep’s wool,
help me to keep
me warm while
the breeze is cool
perhaps, I want us to spend
more time in each other’s arms,
my chest began to feel ice cold from
the silver that hangs from my charms
my fingers began to
feel like icicles from
the rings that I wear,
this one is from
a promise that
we both share
my nose will burn
and turn red when it's
exposed to the cold air
hold my hands tightly as if
you were amidst in prayer
I wonder if this will
survive until Spring,
at my doorstep,
pretty flowers you bring
this only happens in movies,
its some kind of fantasy
but you're my
protector,
my hug
hold me as tightly as you
would your coffee mug
I'll comfort you like a
sweater and keep you snug
lay by my side in
this dreaded place,
be like my sweater,
blanket me by embrace
