Your Faded Pajamas

I know sometimes I think that the hard part is over, I've found the one I want to spend the rest of my life with. But the truth is, the hard part is holding on to him and making sure he knows just how much I appreciate him....each and every day.

I watched you make breakfast this morning
in your t-shirt and faded superman pajamas
and my heart felt a squeeze.
I know I take you for granted
sometimes...
I assume you'll always be there,
always be around.
Except in my nightmares
when I wake up and you're gone.
I wonder what it would be like,
no more sloppy morning kisses
or sleepy good night wishes....
I can't even imagine
because it only happens in
those moments my inner demons
rip you from my life in my dreams.
Maybe it's because you whisper in my ear,
"I love you baby doll"
or "with you I've found my soul mate".
You always do know what to say
to make my fears and doubts go away.
So here's to hoping my nightmares remain dreams
and I'll never have to say
I wish I'd told him,
I wish I'd told him he's everything to me.

Wow...this is such a beautiful tribute to love. It makes one stop and think about chances and time. One never truly knows how much time we have with our loved ones.
