blankets

thick blankets covering our bodies. icy snow on the ground outside. warm bodies pressed up against each other. candle lit rooms with the pleasant scents wafting around us. hot chocolate in large mugs. winter.

my body craves for your touch, your warmth. but when I am shivering under a blanket during the middle of winter, all I can think of is how you are under someone else's blanket tonight.
