After a long day at work as I’m on my drive home, I like to think that you will be at home waiting for me in our bed keeping it warm. On a really long day I like to think that you are up and when you see me pull into the driveway you start running the water, to help with my aches and pains for the extra long day that I have had. On a normal day, an every day kind of day, I like to think that you will so up at my door knocking as if you were a stranger to me, to this house or that you will let yourself in and find your way to our bedroom and crawl into bed with me as if we hadn’t even skip a beat.

But I do not live a fantasy, and even tho I think of these things on my long 1 a.m. drive home, I know that these things will never happen. We are like that devoiced couple that doesn’t even speak to each other anymore.I hope that this will change but again, this is not a fantasy.
