Dear Journal: Dreams of Children

I miss him every day that I don’t wake up to see him smile.

He makes all of the bad thoughts in my head go away for a while.

I wonder if I should tell him that I get stressed out too.

I know that he has so much stuff he has to do.

He’s got to go away for a while to get his job done.

I know this is what he has to do, but I miss him still a ton.

Please, let him be safe in what he does so he may come back to me.

I can’t imagine my life without my husband to be.

We’ll be married soon and I’ll be his wife, maybe we’ll have kids,

Our cat will have a fat stomach, I’ll be cleaning dishes and lids,

I wonder what married life is really like.

I’ve waited so long, but I know it won’t be as easy as riding a bike.

We will name our kids Evelyn and Asher, I can’t wait to meet them soon

I look forward to swaddling them in their own little cocoon

I’ll look at their faces, I’ll dry all their tears,

And one day soon, I’ll help them faces all their fears

I’ve never let myself dream as much as I do now

It’s strange to me how my life’s been completely rearranged somehow

And who do I have to thank for this wonderful turn around fairy tale story?

My wonderful fiancé whose name isn’t Corey.
