Soft

Sensitive is what they call me

But really I am soft

Cozy

I love my bed

All cuddled up

Away from pain

Blankets wrapped tight

Because that’s what you do

With delicate things

Fragile

My cheeks flush and my eyes wander

When I feel too seen

When I try too hard to have a say

To do things my way

I break at the smallest crack

Even though ironically

To feel seen

Is all I want

Warm

I give others cozy blankets too

If I warm people up inside

Maybe then the world will be

A cup of hot tea

Not just for them but

For me

Too

Chubby

My body is soft

These days with a tummy roll and chubby cheeks

My shoulders are like pillows

For anyone who wants to cry

Or to be free

To just be

Or to talk

Soft

Yes I am fragile but

Isn’t best feeling in life is

The warm embrace of

A cool pillow

With the delicate touch

Of someone soft?

I am soft
