Dear Baby blanket, 


Thank you.

Thank you for the warm hugs that you gave me on the chilling nights. 

Thank you for the endless memories of my childhood.

Thank you for helping my anxiety.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

 

Pink, that's what I always call you.

Hard days turn into pink, something I can never forget.

Memories turn into spirals but then I look at you I see pink.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.


Blue, all I see is blue.

When I look at you I see grandma's memories.

Blue, all I see is blue.

When I look at the faded pink in your wrinkles, I remember she's still with me. 

When I feel your touch I remember hers. 


Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

Holding back tears til I see you.

Knowing I can let it go, without a judgment. 

You are my BEST FRIEND, swinging you from side to side on my best days. 


Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

Red, when you’re away I feel nothing but betrayal. 

The sound of Red twisted in my head.


Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
