Dear Sweatshirt,

I'm sorry I have to pack you away because you're easily my favorite piece of clothing. But my closet is too full and it's sweltering hot outside now. Summer is approaching which means tank tops and shorts. As I put you away with the rest of my winter clothes to make more room in my closet, I am flooded with so many memories you were a part of.

I will miss the oversized comfort you always provided. I will miss the way you hid the winter fluff I had accumulated in the colder months. I will miss the way you concealed my pale, sun-deprived skin. I will miss getting up in the cold winter morning and throwing you on for warmth.

You were always there for me when I didn't know what to wear. You pair well with sweatpants, leggings, jeans, or shorts. I could always count on you to complete an outfit.

You have seen me through countless campfires, late nights watching movies, and cups of hot cocoa. You brought me comfort no other piece of clothing could.

Even though I won't be able to wear you for a few months, I promise the first day it gets cold enough I will break you back out to wear once again. Until then, I hope you stay safe and warm in storage.

Love,

Your grateful wearer.
