PERSONAL POETRY

Navy Blue Sweater

It's navy blue

It reminds me of you

The first time I wore it, I was smitten

Now from everyone I keep it hidden

I wear it to sleep at night

Then I hug myself real tight

I close my eyes imagining

It's you that I am hugging

Oh how much I hate it

That your smell has now faded

I should just throw it away

Cause it just reminds me of you everyday

A stupid possession 

Now it's giving me depression

You used to be my protection

Now a fabric made of mere cotton

Now I feel so cold

How I long for your hold

I wish that you're still here

Holding me close and dear

But I guess there's nothing I can do

Cause you left me out of the blue

So during this cold weather

I'm afraid that I must settle 

To the only thing you left that still matter

Your stupid navy blue sweater
