My Dear Scarf

My dear scarf...

Winter nights on swarming streets,
a warm feeling you bring me.
To colds I was hard to get
with you around my neck.

Attractive you made me
and hid bad hair days.
A true catch I was with
you around my neck...

I knew not you were
a scarf to every lady.
You brought joy and warmth
to other necks.

At that moment you became
a serpent around my neck.
Strangling, suffocating and sabotaging
me for the rest of my life...
