His Arms Around Me

I would give anything to be able to snuggle up with my husband. I miss his arms around me, his hand in mine, his kisses and the way he looks at me. I fall asleep every night concentrating hard, trying to remember what it feels like to have him lying there beside me with his strong arms wrapped around me, holding me, cradling me next to him, keeping me safe...our breathing matched breath for breath as we hold each other and drift off to sleep. I miss being able to roll over and snuggle into his back and let the world fade away. I miss us falling asleep holding hands or playing footsie. Those little moments are precious and so dearly missed. Odd as it may seem, if I shut everything else out and only let my mind and heart think of him, I can almost feel his strong arms around me and I feel as though I am snuggled safely and lovingly beside him. I can't wait of the day where that is no longer something I have to imagine or dream of, but it is a beautiful truth that I once again get to experience. One day soon; and until then, I will keep him in my heart and keep dreaming and remembering the amazing feeling of being in my husband's arms...safe, happy, loved and peaceful.
