Hoodie

Once in awhile, you see me
shivering
left the apartment
without my coat
again
it's new england.
don't like the weather?
wait five minutes.
it'll change.

You, the gentleman.
offer me your hoodie.
Big and comfy,
somehow this has happened
more than once.
It smells of you.
I can't really describe it
because how do you really
describe a smell?

through the rain,
through the cold,
it serves me well
and i get back safe
and warm, as you
intended.

i don't mean to keep it.
i know you need it,
but this feeling, it's
addicting.
surrounded in you
even without you
at my side.

so know, i don't
mean to be a
thief
but rather a
comfort.
