Oh bother, are you crying again beautiful?

 

Don't worry, I'm right here where you left me.

 

<she picks you up>

That’s right, and I'm ready to take your fiercest hugs.  

 

I'll always be here for you, darling. Ever since you made me yours, I've been determined to be your faithful companion.  Steadfast in an ever-changing world. Nothing makes me happier than to be with you and make you happy.

 

I want to give you every comfort, to wash away every tear and see that gorgeous smile grace your face again.  

 

<with fond memory>

The way you smile at me with love and gratitude when you start to feel better after holding me close, it just makes my little toy heart nearly thump out of my chest.  If my eyes weren't glass, I'd probably leak on you as well.

 

I know you might feel lonely right now, but if I could, I'd tell you just how wonderful you are. I'd wrap my stubby arms around you and squeeze you tight and whisper every kindness in your ear until you fall into a peaceful sleep, full of sweet dreams.  

 

But as I'm full of fluff, I guess you'll have to do the squeezing.  <being hug> Mmm, you're quite good at it actually.

 

Yes, it was the squeezes that first made me yours. When you pulled me out of my box that first Christmas morning. Your eyes twinkled with delight as my wrapping was tossed aside and you squealed and pulled me close.  So tight. And that hug was all it took.

 

From then on, I was yours.

<excited by happy memories>

Bedtime stories and so many cuddles, and movie nights, and slumber parties. We did it all, together. Just the 2 of us. Inseparable. I was your first love and it didn't matter what the activity, as long as we were together.  And our days were just filled with joy!

 

Your love for me was so great it even began to leave me marked. Making me yours forever…

My nose kissed so much the fabric wore away, my fur a bit matted, and even a bare seam that started to show from being hugged around the neck... But as my newness wore off, you loved me all the same...perhaps more I thought. <chuckle> I look at those scars with pride now. Reminders that I belong, I belong to you, beautiful.

 

<gradually more sad/remorseful/reminiscent/touch of jealousy>

But then one day, you felt too old for bears. A bit embarrassed to keep me around, but our bond was too great, you refused to let me be packed away. So from your bed to the shelf I went and I watched you as your trophy play thing as you gave your cuddles to a new bear.  This one was more your size, and…. had parts I don't have.  And despite his considerable lack of fuzziness, I recognized that twinkle in your eye when you looked at him.

 

And I secretly missed you. I longed for you to brush my shaggy fur out of my eyes and hold me close again.  But at least I got to see you, see you occasionally glance at me with the fondness of our past, our memories.

 

<remembering happy times again>

And on lucky days, you'd even take me down and give me a hug! Pull me near and confide in me again. Tell me your secret wish that this new bear would remain as faithful to you as I had always been.  And then, like hiding away your secret, you’d put me right back on the shelf.  But I knew you were happy...and I smiled.

 

Oh and I can’t tell you how much I treasured that joyous blip when he was away.  Perhaps I am a selfish toy.  But, you dressed me in his shirt and I slept with you each night.  I knew in part I was only a stand in, an understudy on his side of the bed... but I didn't mind...we were close again.  And you were smiling as you held me tight and we drifted to sleep.  

 

But when he'd call you'd quickly push past me to answer and sometimes I’d still be on the floor as you feel asleep on the phone.  But that’s ok; I always land softly and I was still close enough to hear your steady breathing…<sigh>....we were both content.

 

But then the fighting started. You and the new bear were growling at each other, a lot. And there wasn't much cuddling at all, oh bother...Then he didn't come to bed.  And I hardly ever saw your smile.  

 

But I was there. You needed comfort and I was all too pleased that you reached for me again.  And I'm still here for you now.  

 

I know he moved out and this bed feels empty to you, but I'm here. Right here beside you. Even if you can’t hear me.  And, I promise, as long as there's still stuffing in my tummy, you won't be alone.  

 

Whatever you need from me, I’ll be here.  Cry your eyes out, my fur can take it. Hold me close; I'm already used to your squeezes. Kiss that worn spot til my nose is thread bare. Your love won't hurt me.  It’s special.

If you want, we can stay in all day...have movie nights again?  We can cuddle by the fire. And whenever you’re ready to face the world again, I'll make sure I'm still here whenever you return home, exactly as you left me.  In case anything feels too trying.

 

Just remember beautiful, your love is too precious for any growly bear.  Anyone who makes you feel like this doesn’t deserve you in their life.  And while I adore our fleeting time together, I also know you are too special to settle for a stuffed bear like me.  <sniff>

 

One day the right bear will come along and I'm sure you'll find a shelf for me again. But I’ll gladly watch if you are happy.  Maybe you’ll have a little cub and I can watch over her as well.  

 

But for now, if you still need your teddy bear, I'll be here beside you. Even after all these years, I still have countless hugs to give.  I’m so glad to be in your arms again. I’ve missed your cuddles.  It means the world to me to be there for you.  To offer my support, my love for you, and whatever else I can.   

 

You'll always be my girl and I’ll forever be your bear; and that's all there is. So take my paw, spoon me close, and hold me tight for now. You aren’t alone.  Let me soothe your troubles, dry your tears, and we’ll snuggle up tonight, just the 2 of us, like old times.  I'm here beautiful, you can always count on me.
