I found that jacket today. <br />The one I always wore. <br />I wore it again, <br />Just so I could feel <br />The way I felt <br />When I was with you. <br />It smells of you <br />And it's all I have left. <br /> <br />I hugged it, <br />Pulled it close and squeezed it tight. <br />Knowing you'd hugged it too <br />Made me feel like I was hugging you, <br />And it made me realise <br />This was the closest I was ever going to get to you again. <br /> <br />I cried, <br />But I didn't want my tears to destroy it. <br />I wanted it to remind me of those Summer days, <br />And not the way i'm feeling right now.<br /><br />Beckie Edwards<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/nostalgia-52/
