Sleeping Child

Someday, I hope you have a child fall asleep...

Someday, I hope you  have a child fall asleep on your chest & in that
moment, with the soft  whisper of their breath  against your skin, I hope
you’ll find the place  you’ve been looking for,  without any effort at all,
right there in your chest  where your child sleeps.
