It wrapped itself around me when the lights went out
And took my form, all my shapes
The way you did
It protected me from any monsters below
And made everything safe and sound
The way you did
It kept me warm when the cold air got me
It listened to my screams of angst
It caught me when I fell down
And never failed to abide this calling
Just the way you did
When you were away
I lay my tired body on half the bed
Going through this whole cycle
Wondering if you too were being
Warmed,
Guarded,
Comforted.
This down feather blanket isn't you
It is a new friend
My friend
No one else's
The way you said
You were no one else's
