Favorite Blanket
Love
Is like
A favorite blanket,
Wrapping around you
When you need it most.
_Wrapped up in a _
_Blanket of love~_
It keeps you warm
When you’re cold,
Like a favorite blanket,
Like a lover’s embrace.
It makes your heart swell
With affection and care,
A favorite blanket
Full of love to share.
A feeling of warmth,
Nostalgia and glee,
Like a soft blanket,
Love from you to me.
Love’s embrace is warm,
Wrapped tight around your heart,
A favorite blanket’s hug is warm,
Wrapped tight around you and me.
_Here to hold you,_
_Not to hurt you…_
__
_Here to love,_
_Never to hate…_
__
_Here to give warmth,_
_Never to freeze…_
Our love is like
A favorite blanket,
Something that will
Warm us,
Hold us,
Cherish us
In the darkest of times.
