Today I was given
the best gift in my life
it's made of cloth
and its dirty and smelly
yet i wear it anyway
i wear it because it's his
because he gave it to me
it's white and it's black
and everytime i look at it
or smell it
or think of it
an image of him appears in my head
and my heart starts to beat
faster and faster
He gave it to me
after the rally
from behind me he came
and wrapped his arm around me
he asked me if i wanted it
and i stared iin surprise
of course i wanted it!
and as i walked to my next class
a big smile tugged
at the corner of my lips.
as i buried my face in his jersey.
