Within your eyes,
my future I do see.
One filled with love,
laughter and family.
A home to call my own,
children who live and grow.
In you, I do see this.

I see you there,
smiling at me,
proud of us,
the home we built,
the children we raised,
the love we shared.

In this dream of you,
and all you bring with you,
I cannot help
but fall for this future.
One of happiness and love.

In the life I actually live,
I cannot see having any children,
nor are you anywhere near.
I am adrift, with no direction,
hoping to glimpse you once more,
in this dream I did have.
