Security Blankie

You tell me all the great things about me And you text out all the wonderful things we will do together But I am not the one for you. You are simply lonely and lost because you are so detached from others. You are in a cold tundra of confusion And I looked like a warm security blanket to grab onto. I am a manifestation of what you want: Something that is warm Wraps you up to shield off chills Soft Brightly colored like my cheeks in the winter But I am not what you need. What you need is someone to brush the snow out of your hair Someone to treat your frostbitten fingers Someone to nurse you back to health Someone to cradle you in their arms... And a security blanket cannot do that.
