Blankets

I made fun of you for all your blankets
and how you put the a/c on in winter
because you like to snuggle with your head covered
I told you I was claustrophobic
and tossed and turned in your big red hoodie
under the weight of the blankets
You told me the story of the sheepskin blanket
and how you stole it away from an old lady
when you got the screwdriver set at the Xmas gift swap
feel how soft you tell me
and I try not to be too impressed as I wrap myself in the tiny blanket

Tonight I walked home alone in the cold
the wind blowing violently in my face
shivering as I quickened my pace
and secretly wished to be under your blankets again
