I don't hold on to the clothes of the past.

Of hoodies and sweaters of the people I don't see anymore

I took some of my cousin's old clothes when she moved out of my Aunt and Uncle's place

I think one was an old boyfriend's hoodie, lacklustre in colour, faded and worn, miles too big for her and gone bobbly in the way well-loved clothes do

I understand why it didn't leave home with her.

So please take your hoodie back

Because I don't want to hold onto the past
