I spent my whole life looking for my sweatshirt
The person to make me feel safe
Make me feel warm
I didn't care about tall or strong
Weak or skinny
Just comfort and safety
I thought I found my sweatshirt
In a once upon a time
A fairytale my mind had conducted
Because the search seemed harder than a lie
But the fabric tore and the color got worn
It wasn't my sweatshirt anymore
But then, it never was before
I believe that I have found my sweatshirt
They make me feel safe
They sew back together the tears that they have in themselves
Put in the work to stitch neat little seams
Sweatshirts aren't perfect but to some, they're everything
Some may not want a sweatshirt
Some may struggle to find theirs
Some may be searching for a cable knit sweater or something flowing in the air
If it makes you feel safe
And makes you feel loved
Be it sweatshirts, cableknits, or nothing at all
Hold onto that feeling
Even if it takes a little long
