Blue Hoodie

A Poem by Krista Weiss

Break up song! Fun :/ Well it's pretty much having to deal with the break up afterwards. Hope you like it! The hidden message is: It smells like me again <3

Blue Hoodie

I was Paula and you were Marco,
I never once dreamed you would someday go,
I should've saw it coming,
But I never dreamed you'd be that forthcoming,
Now that blue hoodie,
Is one of the many things,
That reminds me of you,
And what my future brings

You wore my blue hoodie,
Before you left me,
It still smells like you,
So I will decree,
That I'll never let you,
You swore you loved me so,
So now this blue hoodie you left me,
Keeps haunting my memories,
But still the smell of you marks everything I do,
So I'll have to make it through

The pain gets worse,
The later the day gets,
And I start to miss you more,
After each minute since you left,
I'll never forget you, how could I possibly forget,
The way you used to make me feel,
That feeling of passion, that burst of life,
Thinking you and I were real

You wore my blue hoodie,
Before you left me,
It still smells like you,
So I will decree,
That I'll never let you go,
You swore you loved me so,
So now this blue hoodie you left me,
Keeps haunting my memories,
But still the smell of you marks everything I do,
So I'll have to make it through

I guess I never told you,
Just how you broke my heart in two,
But there was one thing,
I couldn't forget,
I went and put that sweatshirt on,
Just to smell your scent,
It cradled all my tears,
Till the world without you disappeared

You wore my blue hoodie,
Before you left me,
It still smells like you,
So I will decree,
That baby I'll never let you go,
You swore you loved me so,
So now this blue hoodie you left me,
Keeps haunting my memories,
But still the smell of you marks everything I do,
So I'll have to make it through

Now this blue hoodie you left me,
Keeps haunting my memories,
But still the smell of you marks everything I do,
So I'll have to make it through <3

Author's Note

I wrote this song obviously after me and my boyfriend broke up. Before everything happened he borrowed one of my navy blue softball sweatshirt. He washed it for me and when he gave it back it smelled just like him. So even when we were dating, if I started to miss him, I would wear it to school so I could smell him. I know it sounds kinda creepy, but during those times when I hadn't seen him for weeks, it was the only times I felt like he was still mine. So when we broke up, the first thing I did was put that sweatshirt on. And I walked around my room crying, looking for everything in my room that reminded me of him, and put it in a box under my bed. But the only thing I couldn't put away was that sweatshirt. So everyday, I would walk to my sweatshirt to see if it still smelt like him. As the days went on, I did it less and less. Eventually, when I hadn't worn it in a few weeks, I realized that it didn't smell like him. And that's when I knew it was the right time to move on.
