i sob into a gentle fabric my voice quickly fading with every gulp and gasp and yet, my mind is elsewhere i think about the last time i've been held in someones arms the way their limbs entangled with mine their hands in my hair their breath against my neck and im back to sobbing i’m wishing for that warmth in the loneliness of night the press of another’s body against mine, curled close two hearts becoming one and suddenly i’m sobbing again the knot in my chest tightens my gasps quiet down my hands clench in the fabric it’s weight deafening my inconsolable noise but then i think about them and i realize i’m going to be okay weighted blanket or not and the crying stops

weighted blanket
i sob into a gentle fabric my voice quickly fading with every gulp and gasp and yet, my mind is elsewhere i think about the last time i've been held in someones arms the way their limbs entangled with mine their hands in my hair their breath against my neck and im back to sobbing i’m wishing for that warmth in the loneliness of night the press of another’s body against mine, curled close two hearts becoming one and suddenly i’m sobbing again the knot in my chest tightens my gasps quiet down my hands clench in the fabric it’s weight deafening my inconsolable noise but then i think about them and i realize i’m going to be okay weighted blanket or not and the crying stops
originally written on march thirtieth twenty twenty one i'm in a semi-desperate need of purchasing an actual weighted blanket-
